by Taras Hryhorovych Shevchenko (1814 - 1861)

Jakby zostrilysja my znovu
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) 
Jakby zostrilysja my znovu,
Čy ty zljakalasja b, čy ni?
Jakeje tycheje ty slovo
Tojdi b promovyla meni?
Nijakoho. I ne piznala b.
A može b, potim nahadala,
Skazavšy: snylosja durnij.
A ja zradiv by, moje dyvo!
Moja ty dole čornobryva!
Jakby pobačyv, nahadav
Veseleje ta molodeje
Kolyšnje lyšen'ko lycheje.
JA zarydav by, zarydav!
I pomolyvs', ščo ne pravdyvym,
A snom lukavym rozijšlos',
Sliz'my-vodoju rozlylos'
Kolyšnjeje svjateje dyvo!
