Oj try` shlyaxy` shy`rokiyi
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) 
Oj try` shlyaxy` shy`rokiyi
Dokupy` zijshly`sya.
Na chuzhy`nu z Ukrayiny`
Braty` rozijshly`sya.
Poky`nuly` staru matir.
Toj zhinku poky`nuv,
A toj — sestru, a najmenshy`j —
Molodu divchy`nu.
Posady`la stara maty`
Try` yaseny` v poli,
A nevistka posady`la
Vy`soku topolyu.
Try` yavory` posady`la
Sestra pry` doly`ni...
A divchy`na zaruchena —
Chervonu kaly`nu.
Ne pry`jnyaly`s` try` yaseny`,
Topolya vsy`xala;
Povsy`xaly` try` yavory`,
Kaly`na zov'yala.
Ne vertayut`sya try` braty`,
Plache stara maty`,
Plache zhinka z ditochkamy`
— V potoplenij xati.
Sestra plache, jde shukaty`
Brativ na chuzhy`nu...
A divchy`nu zaruchenu
Kladut` v domovy`nu.
Ne vertayut`sya try` braty`,
Po svitu blukayut`,
A try` shlyaxy` shy`rokiyi
Ternom zarostayut`.
