Gude vіter vel'mi v polі
Language: Ukrainian (Українська)
Gude vіter vel'mi v polі, Reve, lіs lamaє... Plache kozak moloden'kij, Dolju proklinaє. Gude vіter vel'mi v polі, Reve, lіs lamaє... Kozak nudit'sja, serdeshnij, Shcho robit', ne znaє. Gude vіter vel'mi v polі, Reve, lіs lamaє... Kozak stogne, bіdolakha, Sam sobі gadaє: «Revesh, vіtre, ta ne plachesh, Bo tobі ne tjazhko! Ti ne znaєsh v svіtі gorja, Tak tobі j ne vazhko. Tobі vse odno: chi v polі, Chi de lіs lamaєsh, Chi po morju khvilju gonish, Chi krishі zdiraєsh. Solom’janі і zalіznі, Jaku de zustrіnesh, Snіgom ljudej zamіtaєsh, V polі jak zastignesh. Odіrvi zh od sercja tugu, Roznesi po polju, Shchob ne plakavsja ja, bіdnij, Na neshchasnu dolju. A koli c'ogo ne zrobish - Kin' mene u more: Nekhaj zo mnoju potone Moє ljute gore!...»
