by Oleksandr Ivanovych Kandyba (1878 - 1944), as Oleksandr Ivanovych Oles

Потік століття зносив гніт
 (Sung text for setting by Y. Stepovyi)
 See original
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) 
Потік століття зносив гніт,
Терпів ярмо й сваволю...
І гнівно враз розбив граніт,
І — гей, на бій за волю!

Летить, кричить, шумить орел,
Розбитих хвиль не ліче:
Їх безліч вилете з джерел,
Коли він їх покличе.

Народ століття зносив гніт,
Терпів ярмо й сваволю...
І грізно враз розбив граніт,
І — гей, на бій за волю!
