by Taras Hryhorovych Shevchenko (1814 - 1861)

Duma Voloxa
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) 
Oj, voloxy`, voloxy`,
Vas zostalosya troxy`.
I vy`, moldavany`,
Teper vy` - ne pany`!

Vashi gospodari –
Najmy`ty` tataram,
Turecz`ky`m sultanam
V kajdanax, v kajdanax!

Godi zh, ne zhurit`sya,
Garno pomolit`sya,
Bratajtesya z namy`,
Z namy`, kozakamy`!

Zgadajte Bogdana,
Slavnogo get`mana -
Budete panamy`.
Ta, yak my`, z nozhamy`.

Ta z bat`kom Maksy`mom
Syu nich pogulyayem,
Shlyaxtu pogojdayem,
Dobre pogulyayem!
Gej! Gej-ge-gej!..
