I bagata ya
Language: Ukrainian (Українська)
I bagata ya, I vrodly`va ya, Ta ne mayu sobi pary`, Beztalanna ya. Tyazhko, tyazhko v sviti zhy`t` I nikogo ne lyuby`t`, Aksamy`tovi zhupany` Ody`nokij nosy`t`. Polyuby`las` by` ya, Odruzhy`las` by` ya Z chornobry`vy`m sy`rotoyu, Ta ne volya moya! Bat`ko, maty` ne splyat`, Na storozhi stoyat`, Ne puskayut` samu mene U sadochok gulyat`. A xoch pustyat`, to z ny`m, Z prepogany`m stary`m, Z moyim nelyubom bagaty`m, Z moyim vorogom zly`m!
