by Oleksandr Ivanovych Kandyba (1878 - 1944), as Oleksandr Oles

Nashho, nashho tobi py`taty`
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) 
Nashho, nashho tobi py`taty`,
Chy` ya lyublyu tebe, chy` ni...
O, legshe serce rozirvaty`,
Nizh znaty` vidpovid` meni.

Chy` ya lyublyu tebe, ne znayu,
Spy`taj vnochi u sribny`x zir,
Vesnoyu vsluxajs` v shelest gayu,
Vdy`vy`sya v dal` z zeleny`x gir.

Spy`taj u chajky`, shho golose,
Spy`taj u xmar, shho sl`ozy` llyut`,
Pidy` na spaleni pokosy`,
Shho vraz ostannij rosy` pyut`, spy`taj...

Spy`taj, bo ya skazat` bezsy`la...
YA znayu til`ky` te,
Shho pidesh ty`, i vy`ry`ta mogy`la,
I zgaslo sonce zolote.
