by Oleksandr Ivanovych Kandyba (1878 - 1944), as Oleksandr Oles
Čomu?
Language: Ukrainian (Українська)
Čomu ja barvinkom v haju ne steljus', De nižky tvoï lastivkamy litajut'... De ruky lileï na zustrič komus' Kvitky lisovi prostjahajut'? Čomu ne litaju ja vitrom v haju, De vvečeri sjaješ ty, zore? Schopyv by na kryla ja ptašku svoju, Odnis by za hory, za more.
