Oi ty, dube kucheriavii, shyrokii oi lyst na tobi

Lyrics

Oi ty, dube kucheriavii, shyrokii oi lyst na tobi.

Ty, kozache malodenkyi, vsia nepravdonka v tobi.

Okh ty kliavsa, prysiahavsa: «Ne pokynu ya tebe».

A tepera pokydaiesh, sertsu zhaliu zadaiosh.

Okh, z toho zhaliu, z toho zhaliu da zh pidu ya v temnyi lis.

Nekhai mene v tomu liesie, nekhai mene zvir izist.

Okh, ty zvieriu, ty liutaru, rozhbezhysa po liesam.

Okh, roznesy zh ty maie tielo po zelenym riekieta[o]m.
