Spy, dytynko moja, [sonce]1 moho žyttja, Jara kvitko pachučoho maju! Naj kolyše tebe ljubyj [čar]2 zabuttja, Sribna mrija pro rozkoši raju. Ne dyvysja, ščo ja vže vid provesny lit Chodžu p’jana sliz'my i žurboju: Choč rabyni ty syn, ta pryjšov ty na svit Pid ščaslyvym znakom i zvizdoju. Čuješ, hen vid stepiv hromovyj ide spiv, [A vid neho]3 trjasut'sja palaty, Znaj, ščo v tobi plyve krov bojkych lycariv, Šo ne vmily prosyt', ni rydaty. Spy, kochannja! Zasny snom borcja, ščo spočyv, Zakolysanyj hamorom boïv, I kripysja, jak lev, bo narod tvij ožyv J [na rozputti]4 žde na heroïv.
