Zemle, moya vseplodyushhaya maty`
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) 
Zemle, moya vseplodyushhaya maty`,
Sy`ly`, shho v tvoyij zhy`ve gly`by`ni,
Kraplyu, shhob v boyu sy`l`nishe stoyaty`,
Daj i meni!

Daj teploty`, shho rozshy`ryuye grudy`,
Chy`sty`t` chuttya i vidnovlyuye krov,
Shho do lyudej bezgrany`chnuyu budy`t`
Chy`stu lyubov!

Daj i ognyu, shhob ny`m slovo naly`ty`,
Dushi stryasat` gromovuyu daj vlast`,
Pravdi sluzhy`ty`, nepravdu paly`ty`
Vichnu daj stragt`!

Sy`lu rukam daj, shhob puta lamaty`,
Yasnist` dumkam — v serce kry`vdy` vluchat`,
Daj pracyuvat`, pracyuvat`, pracyuvaty`,
V praci skonat`!
