Natalju, Natalju! Cja p[i]snja tob[i]!
Udvokh mi cju p[i]snju sklada[e]m,
Udvokh po tob[i] mi z[i]tkha[e]m v zhurb[i],
Udvokh beznad[i]jno kokha[e]m.

Ja znaju, shcho v[i]n zacharu[e] tebe,
U jogo [i] struni [i] zvuki...
Rozkazhe kh[i]ba mo[e] slovo slabe
Pro vse mo[e] shchastja [i] muki?

Ja znaju, poet peremozhe mene,
Bo ledve torknusja ja l[i]ri,
V tu zh mit' moja l[i]ra ognem spalakhne,
Tomu, shcho ljublju ja bez m[i]ri!

Natalju, Natalju! Cja p[i]snja tob[i]!
Udvokh mi cju p[i]snju sklada[e]m,
Udvokh po tob[i] mi z[i]tkha[e]m v zhurb[i],
Udvokh beznad[i]jno kokha[e]m.
