Zaplyatala vosyen' yasnu kosami dy rasplyala
Zaplutala, yak zima zamyataye stsyezhki pozniya saboy dabyala
Zapytala, oy nashto mnye toy, kaho nye vybirala
Oy, zablytala da vidna, nochka tsyomna tayamnitsami i zharstsyu pawna

Da vidna, da vidna zastalasya nye adna
Da vidna, da vidna vostry myesyats nas yadnaw
Da vidna, da vidna vostry myesyats nas yadnaw
Da vidna, da vidna zastalasya nye adna

Nye maya vina, zastalasya nye adna

Oy, yak mala maladzyen'kaya w dzyewkakh dy pabyla
Oy, yak rana, oy rana, ruzha byelaya, kamu ty tak kvitnyets' pachala?
Oy, ty mama, oy nashto mnye toy, kaho nye vybirala
Oy, zablytala da vidna nochka tsyomna tayamnitsami i zharstsyu pawna

Da vidna, da vidna zastalasya nye adna
Da vidna, da vidna vostry myesyats nas yadnaw
Da vidna, da vidna vostry myesyats nas yadnaw
Da vidna, da vidna zastalasya nye adna

Nye maya vina, zastalasya nye adna
Zastalasya nye adna

I braided the autumn and then unbraided it
I got lost, for winter covered the late paths with snow
I asked myself why I needed the one that I had not chosen
I stayed confused until dawn, dark night full of secrets and passion

Until dawn, until dawn I wasn't yet alone
Until dawn, until dawn the clear moon kept bringing us together
Until dawn, until dawn the clear moon kept bringing us together
Until dawn, until dawn I wasn't yet alone

I wasn't the one to blame for not being on my own

Oh I did not stay a girl for long, my youth passed me by
Oh how early, oh so early, did you bloom, my white rose, and to whom?
Oh mamma, why do I need the one that I have not chosen
I stayed confused until dawn, dark night full of secrets and passion

Until dawn, until dawn I wasn't yet alone
Until dawn, until dawn the clear moon kept bringing us together
Until dawn, until dawn the clear moon kept bringing us together
Until dawn, until dawn I wasn't yet alone

I wasn't the one to blame for not being on my own
I wasn't on my own
