Neo-Traditional Folk

Novyi Merchyk, Valkivskyi District02:34

Ой там за горою, там бої ідуть,
Санітари спєшно раняних несуть. (двічі)

Ой там старий батько окопи копав,
Він здалека бачив як боєц упав. (двічі)

Він здалека бачив як боєц упав,
Підійшов він ближче - син його лежав. (двічі)

"Чи ти, сину, раняний, чи вбитий лежиш,
Чом до мене, сину, ти не говориш?". (двічі)

"Я, батьку, не раняний, я вбитий лежу,
Возьми штири доски, збий дубовину." (двічі)

Оце ж тобі слава, оце ж тобі честь,
Висока могила, дерев'яний хрест. (двічі)
