by Oleksandr Yakovych Konysky (1836 - 1900)

Скорбна дума
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) 
Мені аж страшно, як згадаю,
Яке я лихо пережив, скількох людей
Похоронив і нащо ж я сам сновидаю.
Добре, коли б жилось як в людей,
А то приблудою живу...
Неначе віл ярмо я тягну.
Коли ж спочить я прибуду?
І смерть мене, мабуть, минає.
Іди, небого, йди мерщій я жду тебе...
Давно я твій! Ні! Не йде, глуха,
Мабуть не дочуває!
