Divlyusya: yde yakas' m³zerna t³n',
Na plechah s³ryachina, vsya muruga
Ta porvana, a na gubah osuga,
A tvar nenache viorana r³n';
Zahripliy podih z kashlyu ta bol³n',
V ochah jittya nema, lish - b³l' ³ tuga.
Tsya postat' vimorena y nedoluga
Do lyuds'kih ne pod³bna sotvor³n'.
To - b³lorus. Yak g³rko v³n z³tha!
V bagnovische nujdi yogo vtopila
Temnota klyata, machuha liha;
Yogo mayno - hatinochka pohila,
Yogo jittya - sokira ta soha,
K³nets' yogo strajdan' - korchma y mogila.
