[edit]- Native Ukraine
- The village in our Ukraine - as if the pysanka village.
- For the wide-field lany,[1] the Dnipro, and steep slopes, it would be seen and would be heard as the Roaring roars (implying the Dnipro).
- Homonila Ukraine, for long homonila.[2]
- It was once in Ukraine, they were able to govern (panuvaty) (Implying the times of the Kyivan Rus).
- He roars and groans the Dnipro wide (One of the most widely attributed to Taras Shevchenko phrase).
- Fought it Ukraine to the ultimate end: now her own children worse than lachy[3] crucify her.
- Ukraine, Ukraine! My heart, my mother! When I remember your fate, my heart will weep!
- In own hut - there's own truth, own power, own will.
- Fight and over-struggle![4]
- For she is, the only that we have, all singing and ringing, all weeping and rumbling, and yet without the laurel wreath. (Одна вона у нас така — уся співуча і дзвінка, уся плакуча і гримуча хоч без лаврового вінка.) (speaking of the Ukrainian language)
