Žurba
Language: Ukrainian (Українська)
Stoït' hora vysokaja, Popid horoju haj, Zelenyj haj, hustesen'kyj, Nenače spravdi raj. Pid hajem v'jet'sja ričen'ka, Jak sklo vona blyščyt'; Dolynoju zelenoju Kudys' vona bižyt'. Kraj bereha, [u zatyšku]1, Pryv'jazani čovny; A try verby schylylysja, Mov žurjat'sja vony, Ščo projde ljube litečko, Povijut' choloda, Osyplet'sja ïch lystjačko, I ponese voda. Žurjusja j ja nad ričkoju… Bižyt' vona, šumyt', A v mene bidne serden'ko I mlije, i bolyt'. Oj ričečko, holubon'ko! Jak chvylečky tvoï — Probihly dni ščaslyviï I radošči moï… Do [tebe, ljuba ričen'ko]2, Šče vernet'sja vesna; A molodist' ne vernet'sja, Ne vernet'sja vona!.. Stoït' hora vysokaja, Zelenyj haj šumyt'; Ptašky spivajut' holosno, I ričečka blyščyt'. Jak choroše, jak veselo Na bilim sviti žyt'!.. Čoho ž u mene serden'ko I mlije, i bolyt'! Bolyt' vono ta žuryt'sja, Ščo vernet'sja vesna, A molodist'… ne vernet'sja, Ne vernet'sja vona!..
