Sim strun ja torkaju, struna po struni
Language: Ukrainian (Українська)
Sim strun ja torkaju, struna po struni, Nechaj moï struny lunajut', Nechaj moï spivy litajut' Po ridnij kochanij moïj storoni. I, može, de kobza najdet'sja, Ščo hučno na struny ozvet'sja, Na struny, na spivy moï nehučni. I, može, zahraje ta kobza vil'niše, Niž tychiï struny moï. I vil'niï huky ïï Znajdut' posluchannja u sviti pyl'niše; I bude ta kobza – hučna, Ta til'ky ne može vona Lunaty vid strun moïch tychych ščyriše.
