Shchedryk-vedryk, byv mene Petryk / Shchedrivochka shchedruvala

Lyrics

Shchedryk-vedryk,
Byv mene Petryk,
Iz khaty vyhnav,
Chuprynu vyrvav,
Spasiba lyudyam,
Shcho odboronyly,
Kusok sala
Zuby vterebyly.

Shchedrivochka shchedruvala,
Pid vikontse pidbihala:
- Shcho ty, zhinko, navaryla,
Shcho ty, babko, napekla,
Vynesy nam do vikna.
Yak ne vynesesh do vikna,
Viz'mu vola za roha,
A kobylku za chubrynku
Ta y poyidu na torzhok,
Kuplyu babi pyrizhok,
A didovi batozhok.
Davayte kovbasu,
Ato vsyu khatu roznesu,
Na l'od, a z l'odu i v vodu.
