by Sylvestr Gnatovych Yarychevsky (1871 - 1918)

Sy`ritka
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) 
Sy`ritka na zirku dy`vy`las`
I shhy`ro do neyi moly`las`:
“Svity`, moya vtixo, svity`,
Zbudy` moyu dolyu, zbudy`!”

Ta dolya blukala svitamy`,
Sy`ritka vmy`valas` sl`ozamy`,
A zirci dy`vy`ty`sya zhal`,
I stala zny`katy` u dal`.

Ta angel stradal`civ
I smutku poletiv za zirkoyu xutko,
Za yasne prominnya uzyav,
I znov sered neba poklav.

I zirka jogo zrozumila,
Zi vsty`du cila spalenila
I vzhe u prostir nebizhy`t`,
Ly`sh syaye serdeshna j drizhy`t`.
