Zhurba
Language: Ukrainian (Українська)
Stoyit` gora vy`sokaya, Popid goroyu gaj, Zeleny`j gaj, gustesen`ky`j, Nenache spravdi raj. Pid gayem v'yet`sya richen`ka, Yak sklo vona bly`shhy`t`; Doly`noyu zelenoyu Kudy`s` vona bizhy`t`. Kraj berega, [u zaty`shku]1, Pry`v'yazani chovny`; A try` verby` sxy`ly`ly`sya, Mov zhuryat`sya vony`, Shho projde lyube litechko, Poviyut` xoloda, Osy`plet`sya yix ly`styachko, I ponese voda. Zhuryusya j ya nad richkoyu… Bizhy`t` vona, shumy`t`, A v mene bidne serden`ko I mliye, i boly`t`. Oj richechko, golubon`ko! Yak xvy`lechky` tvoyi — Probigly` dni shhasly`viyi I radoshhi moyi… Do [tebe, lyuba richen`ko]2, Shhe vernet`sya vesna; A molodist` ne vernet`sya, Ne vernet`sya vona!.. Stoyit` gora vy`sokaya, Zeleny`j gaj shumy`t`; Ptashky` spivayut` golosno, I richechka bly`shhy`t`. Yak xoroshe, yak veselo Na bilim sviti zhy`t`!.. Chogo zh u mene serden`ko I mliye, i boly`t`! Boly`t` vono ta zhury`t`sya, Shho vernet`sya vesna, A molodist`… ne vernet`sya, Ne vernet`sya vona!..
