Ой, поперед мене гори сині [Oy, popered mene hory syni] [English translation]

Oh, the blue mountains in front of me,

I'm looking for God so high,

Only not to come down to earth

Only not to have my eyes withered.

And behind me (there is) a road travelled,

And blue mountains in front of me.

I want to drink without boundaries,

Leave behind everything that I can see today.

Chorus:

Allow me

To touch your feet,

Allow me

To cool (my) soul in gray snow.

To feel by the breath of the limitless,

To braid a beautiful day in the hair,

Stop me, as I cannot do myself,

Stop, as it may be already too late.

Oh, the blue mountains in front of me,

And, what is down there is not hallowed,

If I do not reach you, my dear,

I can be left behind here forever.

Chorus (2)
