I molylasja ja, j spodïvalasja ja
Language: Ukrainian (Українська)
I molylasja ja, j spodïvalasja ja, Čy ne hljane choč raz ljubo dolja moja. I mynaly lïta, dožydala ïï, Ta daremni buly spodïvannja moï: Ne diždalasja ja… I mynuly lïta — V sercï pustka nïma, ja teper vže ne ta! Na robotï tjažkij zvikuvala žyttja — Vono marno pišlo, vse pišlo bez puttja. I nedolja moja j dosï davyt' mene, I ta pracja tjažka stan nedužyj mij hne, I vže slïpnut' od slïz oči kari moï, A vse dolï nema — ne diždalas' ïï!… Nï rodyny nema, nï družyny nema, S'vit šyrokyj usïm, a minï vin — tjurma!
