by Taras Hryhorovych Shevchenko (1814 - 1861)

Chogo meni tyazhko, chogo meni nudno
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) 
Chogo meni tyazhko, chogo meni nudno,
Chogo serce plache, ry`daye, kry`chy`t`,
Mov dy`tya golodne? Serce moye trudne,
Chogo ty` bazhayesh, shho v tebe boly`t`?

Chy` py`ty`, chy` yisty`, chy` spaton`ky` xochesh?
Zasny`, moye serce, naviky` zasny`,
Nevkry`te, rozby`te — a lyud navisny`j
Nexaj skazheniye... Zakry`j, serce, ochi.
