«Shche ne vmerla Ukrainy i slava, i volia,
Shche nam, brattia molodii, usmikhnetsia dolia.
Zghynut nashi vorizhenky, yak rosa na sontsi.
Zapanuiem i my, brattia, u svoii storontsi.
Chorus:
Dushu y tilo my polozhym za nashu svobodu,
I pokazhem, shcho my, brattia, kozatskoho rodu».
Original
«Ще не вмерла України і слава, і воля,
Ще нам, браття молодії, усміхнеться доля.
Згинуть наші воріженьки, як роса на сонці.
Запануєм і ми, браття, у своїй сторонці.
Chorus:
Душу й тіло ми положим за нашу свободу,
І покажем, що ми, браття, козацького роду».
«Ukraine's glory and freedom/will [?] Translation have not yet perished,
Still upon us, young brothers, fate shall smile.
Our enemies shall vanish, like dew in the sun.
We too shall rule, brothers, in our country.
Chorus:
Soul and body shall we lay down for our freedom,
And we will show that we, brothers, are of Cossack descent.»
