by Taras Hryhorovych Shevchenko (1814 - 1861)
Прощай, світе, прощай, земле
Language: Ukrainian (Українська)
Прощай, світе, прощай, земле, Неприязний краю. Мої муки, мої люті В хмари заховаю. А ти, моя Україно, Безталанна вдово, Я до тебе літатиму З хмари на розмову. На розмову тихосумну, На раду з тобою; Опівночі, падатиму Рясною росою.
