Naščo, naščo tobi pytaty
Language: Ukrainian (Українська)
Naščo, naščo tobi pytaty, Čy ja ljublju tebe, čy ni... O, lehše serce rozirvaty, Niž znaty vidpovid' meni. Čy ja ljublju tebe, ne znaju, Spytaj vnoči u sribnych zir, Vesnoju vsluchajs' v šelest haju, Vdyvysja v dal' z zelenych hir. Spytaj u čajky, ščo holose, Spytaj u chmar, ščo sl'ozy lljut', Pidy na spaleni pokosy, Ščo vraz ostannij rosy pjut', spytaj... Spytaj, bo ja skazat' bezsyla... JA znaju til'ky te, Ščo pideš ty, i vyryta mohyla, I zhaslo sonce zolote.
