Oi tatochko, tatochko

Lyrics

– Oi tatochko, tatochko,
De zh ty podiv mamochku?
Chy ty yii propyv-prohuliav,
Chy ty rybolovtsiam darom viddav?

– Tsytte, ditky, ne krychit,
Ta nikomu ne kazhit.
Ya ne buv bez zhinky y ne budu,
Pryvedu vam mamu molodu.

– A Vam bude zhinochka,
A nam bude bidochka.
A my roziidemsia po lisi,
Yak toi syvyi tuman po lisi.

Tilky dity na porih,
A machukha za batih.
/ Pishly moi dity po sviti,
Yak tii horobtsi po strisi. / 2
