Krjače voron
Language: Ukrainian (Українська)
Krjače voron čornyj, krjače, Na mohyli zavyvaje. Ukraïna stohne, plače, Sliz'my dribnymy rydaje. Hej! Vy myli kozačen'ky! Slavy dobroï šukaly, Ne dovelos' pohuljaty U nevil'nyky popaly... Vaši biliï ručen'ky U kajdany zakuvaly, Sylu j slavu vašu dobru Zliï turky zapsuvaly. Ne dostalo, brattja, voli Voroham svoïm pomstytys'... Dovelosja u kajdanach Vik hirkyj, tjažkyj prožyty. Stohnut', tužat' kozačen'ky, Nen'ku ridnu spomynajut', Spomynajut' brativ mylych, Ščo u Siči tam huljajut'. Krjače voron čornyj, krjače, Puhač syvyj zavyvaje. Ukraïna stohne, plače, Sliz'my dribnymy rydaje.
