Ydu z roboty zlyi, yak pes,
Znov pusti karmany,
Znovu bulba chy oves,
A komus' banany,
Dity stohne, dity plachut',
Shchos' roby, miy pane,
Koni chay yidyat' oves,
My chochemo banany!

Banany, banany,
De distaty many?
Banany, banany.

Chochesh zyty, vmiy vertitys' –
Kaze miy susid,
Chochesh maty duze hroshi,
Stan, yak invalid.
Zachovay odnu nohu,
Ochi podyimay,
Chto na tebe tilko hlyane,
Skaze: "Vay, vay, vay!"

Ya posluchav tu poradu,
Stav sy pid parkan,
I proshu v lyudey kopiyku
Daty na banan.
Chto ide – daye my hroshi
Chy bidnyak, chy pan,
Vsi meni dopomahayut'
Kupyty banan.

V mene hroshey yak tych voshey,
Az trishchyt' karman,
Vsi viddam, bo zinka choche
Maty toy banan.
Bula morkva i buryak,
Navit' baklazan,
Shcho meni teper robyty?
De znayty banan?

Pryspiv

Ponese mene litak
Az za okean,
Tam de palmy, ananasy
I roste banan,
Ale za banany
Treba daty mani,
A u mene hroshi
Tilky derev’yani.

Banany, banany,

Banany, banany...
Obana-bana... (ost 2 ryadky – 2)
