by Mikola Kindratovich Vorony (1871 - 1938)

Sonce zaxody`t`, ciluyuchy` gaj
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) 
Sonce zaxody`t`, ciluyuchy` gaj,
Kvity` ky`vayut` jomu na dobranich,
Shepchut`, ly`stochky` zry`vayuchy` na nich:
— Ne poky`daj, ne poky`daj…

V ridnomu krayi nam doli nema:
Buri nas ny`shhat`, pry`gnoblyuye t`ma,
Studyat` morozy`…
Czvit nash, krasu nashu — gublyat` use!
Z pivnochi viter z soboyu nese
Lyuti pogrozy`.

Malo zazanaly` my` svitla j tepla:
Xolod, tumany` ta sira imla —
Ot nasha dolya!
Paserbam v ridnij svoyij storoni,
Nam xiba til`ky` vvy`zhayutsya v sni
Shhastya ta volya!

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . 
Sonce zaxody`t`, ciluyuchy` gaj,
Kvity` ky`vayut` jomu na dobranich,
Shepchut`, ly`stochky` zvy`vayuchy` na nich:
— Ne poky`daj… ne poky`daj…
