Xiba til`ky` rozham czvisty`?
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) 
Xiba til`ky` rozham czvisty`?
Xiba solov’yam ly`sh spivaty`?
Xiba nam dlya shhastya vesnu
My`nuluyu treba vertaty`?

Xiba til`ky` v ridnim kubli
YA mozhu vy`spivuvat` dolyu?
Grix ptasi xiba voseny`
Xoch den` politaty` na voli?

I, vy`vivshy` dity`, [ptashky`]1
Ne [zaraz v vy`rij odlitayut`]2, –
[Yak]3 kvity`, shho ly`sh voseny`
Rozkishno czvisty` pochy`nayut`.

I chasom xvy`ly`na yasna
Znachnisha od [roku nam stane]4,
Todi j sered l`odu vesna
V voskreslomu serci [nastane]5.
