Yak zhe ya tebe kohau, ty sobi ne uyawlyaesh
Zhyttya bez tebe nema
I wse scho ya robliu darma
iakscho ia ne mayu i myti takoyi
koly b ne dyshav ya i zhyv by toboyu
O, iak zhe ia tebe  kohau, ty sobi ne uyawlyaesh

Hochu ya tebe, lush tebe
Skorish prygornuty do se-e-ebe
Yakyi zhe ia vdyachnyy i doli svoyeyi 
za te scho mene pov'yazala z tvoyeu
O, iak zhe ia tebe  kohau, ty sobi ne uyawlyaesh

Spasybi vam, druzi moyi,
Bat'ky i moi wchyteli,
I vam, more y sonce, y tobi, synye nebo
za te, scho mene pryvely vy do tebe

Ia bachu iak sonce vstaye, 
prominnya yogo to volossya tvoye
I sutinkah sribnyh, i zoryah nochey
ya bachu vidmynnya tvoih nizhnyh ochej

Ya prosto ne znau, chy v zmozi slova
Taki pochuttia pereda-aty vam....
O, iak ia tebe  kohau
Sanechka moya rodnaya...
