Oy z-za hory sontse skhodyt'

Lyrics

Oy z-za hory sontse skhodyt', za druhu zakhodyt',
/ Tam zhonatyy do divchyny shchovechora khodyt'. / 2

Yak pryyshov vin pid vikentse: “Dobryy vechir, sertse”,
/ Vona stala, y vidkazala: “Zarizh zhinku pershu”. / 2

- Zarizh zhinku shche y dytynku, polozhy na lavku,
/ A sam prykhod' iz vechera ta y sydy do ranku. / 2

Yak pryyshov vin do domochku, stav nozha hostryty,
/ A myla sya dohadala, stala sya y prosyty. / 2

- Chekay mylyy, chornobryvyy, khoch odnu hodynu,
/ Nekhay zhe ya pohoduyu malen'ku dytynu. / 2

Chekay mylyy, chornobryvyy, khoch odyn chasochok,
/ Nekhay zhe ya pohoduyu poslyednyy razochok. / 2

- Budesh, myla, chornobryva, budesh hoduvaty,
/ Yak ya piydu do Dunayu nozha polokaty. / 2

A susida tse bachyla, dala nen'tsi znaty,
/ - Oy ydy, nen'ko, ty staren'ka dochku sporazhaty. / 2

Oy yak pryyshla stara nen'ka, stala na porozi,
/ Obillyaly staru nen'ku, dribnen'kiyi sl'ozy. / 2

- Dochko moya, dochko moya, sho zh ty provynyla,
/ Sho ta tvoya krov chervona zemlyu vspolonyla. / 2

- Yak ne znayu, moya mamo, yak ya sya vrodyla,
/ Tak ne znayu, moya mamo, shcho ya provynyla. / 2
