by Stepan-Yury Volodymyrovych Maslyak (1895 - 1960)

Emigrants`ka elegiya
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) 
Za selom sky`gly`t` viter psalom,
Sy`ple ly`styam ziv' yaly`m dibrova 
I yak vse voseny` ni zhy`ttya ni besny`.
I yak zavzhdy` vid tebe ni slova,
Chy` zhy`vesh tam shhe ty`,
Chy` pishla svity` ta yak ya,
Shhob dorogu zguby`ty`,
Shhob chekaty` na te chy`m des` viter mete,
Shho lezhy`t` na shlyaxu vzhe uby`te.
Oj verny`s` xoch na nich, xoch na den`,
Xoch na my`t` do porozhnoyi xaty`,
Xoch po te, shho ya mig ta ne vsty`g 
I chogo ne zumiv shhe skazaty`.
