Zaide-zaidesh i do mene, moia ptashka
Krylamy pisnia zlitaie vazhka
Serdeńko sertse kokhane, ne turbuisia
Dolia doviryla svit ostannim iz nas
Ya svitla shukaiu, hory zvernu
And I call you
Fly, bird
I’m begging you
Begging you, please just
Live, share
My heart with someone who
Cares of me and my little bird of pray
Vertai-vertaisia dodomu, ridna stezhka
Spiv perelitnykh ptashok narodyť vesnu
I call you
Fly, bird
I’m begging you
Begging you just
Care of me and my little bird
Fly like a bird
Where do you go?
I’m begging you, please just live
Sharе my heart with someone who
Fliеs, bird
I’m begging you
Begging you, please just
Live, share
My heart with someone who
Cares of me and my little bird of pray
You’ll come to me too, my bird
The grievous song takes off on its wings
Little heart, beloved heart, don’t you worry
The fate entrusted the world to the last of us
I’m looking for the light, I’ll move heaven and earth
And I call you
Fly, bird
I'm begging you
Begging you, please just
Live, share
My heart with someone who
Cares of me and my little bird of pray
Come back, come back home by the familiar road
The singing of migratory birds will summon the spring
I call you
Fly, bird
I'm begging you
Begging you just
Care of me and my little bird
Fly like a bird
Where do you go?
I'm begging you, please just live
Share my heart with someone who
Flies, bird
I'm begging you
Begging you, please just
Live, share
My heart with someone who
Cares of me and my little bird of pray
