– Da yak oddayesh, da matinko, moloduyu,
Ta poshly zh uslid zozulen'ku luhovuyu.
Da zozulen'ka, rannyaya ptashka, kuvat' bude,
Da vona zh mene, moloduyu, budyt' bude.
– Ta nashcho zh tobi, dytya moye, zozulen'ka,
Ta yak ye v tebe, dytya moye, ta svekrukhon'ka.
– Ta svekrukhon'ka ne matinka, ta y ne zbudyt',
Ta til'ky zh vyyde za vorota – ta y obsudyt'.
