A zasvity zh, ta y maty, svichku zh,
Postav na stoli,
Oi nekhai liudy zh ta y podyvliatsia zh,
Chy para meni.
Oi svicha moia, ta y voskovaia zh,
Neiasno horyt,
Oi z kym liubylas – ta y rozluchylas,
Serdenko bolyt.
A z kym liubylas – rozluchylas,
Serdenko bolyt,
Z kym ne znalas – povinchalas,
Treba v sviti zhyt.
