Lyuba lastivochko, my`ly`j ptashku mij, Ty` mene ne ky`daj, ne lety` v vy`rij! Pidnesy`s` do xmary`, poverny` dolom Ponad nashy`m krayem, nad nashy`m selom! Do mogo vikoncya, spusty`s`, pry`ly`ny`, I radisnu pisnyu meni zadzvony`, I goloskom svoyim [tugu mni]1 rozvij — Zazhdy`, shhebetushko, ne lety` v vy`rij! A lastivka kazhe: „Ne vderzhy`sh mene! [Mene taya]2 tuga z vikoncya zhene. A lyude ly`xiyi gonyat` zponad strix, I v xmarax shhe chuty` [yix pakisny`j]3 smix. Ni voli, ni [my`ru, ni soncya — tvij]4 kraj! Ne gaj mene, druzhe, — ya [lechu]5 u raj!“
