by Taras Hryhorovych Shevchenko (1814 - 1861)

Oj u gayu, gayu...
Language: Ukrainian (Українська) 
Oj u gayu, gayu ta j vitru nemaye,
Misyacz` vy`soko ta j ziron`ky` syayut`,
Vy`jdy`, serden`ko, ya vy`glyadayu,
Xoch na gody`nu, moya ry`bchy`no.
Oj, vy`glyan`, golubko, ta j povorkuyem,
Ta j posumuyem,
Bo ya daleko vsyu nich mandruyu,
Vsyuyu nich mandruyu.
Vy`glyan`, ptashko, moye serden`ko,
Poky` bly`zen`ko, ta j povorkuyem,
Ox, tyazhko bez tebe.
Oj, vy`jdy`, serden`ko!
