Strohanivka, Chaplynskyi District01:00

Як виходив я із хати,
Прощай, рідна ж моя мати,
Гей, гей, доля моя,
Де ж ти водою запливла?

Як виходив я з крильця,
Прощай, рідна сестриця,
Гей, гей, доля моя,
Де ж ти водою запливла?

Як виходив я з двора,
Прощай, родіна моя,
Гей, гей, доля моя,
Де ж ти водою запливла?

Chumak

Strohanivka, Chaplynskyi District02:22

Ой п'є чумак п'є, в його гроши є,
Ой за ним, за ним його рідна мати дрібні, дрібні сльози ллє. (двічі)

Ой сину, мій сину, дитина моя,
Ой перестань ти горілочки пити, бо про, бо проп'єш коня. (двічі)

Ой сину, мій сину, дитино моя,
Ой перестань ти до вдови ходити, бо зве-, бо зведе з ума. (двічі)

(Ой мамо моя, не покину горілочки пити, бо солодкая,

Ой мамо моя, не покину я до вдови ходити, бо харошая.)
