Oj chogo ty` pochornilo, Zeleneye pole? — Pochornilo ya od krovi Za vol`nuyu volyu. Krug mistechka Berestechka Na choty`ry` my`li Mene slavni zaporozhci Svoyim trupom vkry`ly`. Ta shhe mene gajvorony` Ukry`ly` z pivnochi... Klyuyut` ochi kozacz`kiyi, A trupu ne xochut`. Pochornilo ya, zelene, Ta za vashu volyu... YA znov budu zelenity`, A vy` vzhe nikoly` Ne vernetesya na volyu, Budete oraty` Mene sty`xa ta oryuchy` Dolyu prokly`naty`.
