Language: Ukrainian (Українська)
My`nuly` lita molodiyi, Xolodny`m vitrom od nadiyi Uzhe poviyalo. Zy`ma! Sy`dy` ody`n v xolodnij xati, Nema z ky`m ty`xo rozmovlyaty`, Ani porady`ty`s`. Nema, Anikogisin`ko nema! Sy`dy` zh ody`n, poky` nadiya Odury`t` durnya, osmiye... Morozom ochi okuye, A dumy` gordiyi rozviye, Yak tu snizhy`nu po stepu! Sy`dy` zh ody`n sobi v kutku. Ne zhdy` vesny` — svyatoyi doli! Vona ne zijde vzhe nikoly` Sadochok tvij pozeleny`t`, Tvoyu nadiyu onovy`t`! I dumu vol`nuyu na volyu Ne pry`jde vy`pusty`t`... Sy`dy` I nichogisin`ko ne zhdy`!..
