Shche ne vmerla Ukrajina, ny slava, ny volja, 
Shche nam, Brattja - ukrajincy, usmyzhnet'sja dolja,

Y pokazhem, shcho mi, brattja, kozac'kogo rodu.

Stanem brattja, vsy za volju, vyd Sjanu do Donu,
V rydnym kraju panuvati ne damo nykomu.
Chorne more shche vsmykhnet'sja, dyd Dnypro zradyje,
Shche na nashyj Ukrajiny dolen'ka dospyje

Shche sja voly v Ukrajiny pysn' guchna rozljazhe.
Z a Karpati vydyb`jet'sna, zgomonit' stepami,
Ukrajini slava stane pomyzh narodami.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Ukraine's glory hasn't perished, nor her freedom 
Upon us, fellow compatriots, fate shall smile once more. 
Our enemies will vanish, like dew in the morning sun, 
And we too shall rule, brothers, in a free land of our own. 

CHORUS
We'll lay down our souls and bodies to attain our freedom, 
And we'll show that we, brothers, are of the Kozak nation. 
We'll lay down our souls and bodies to attain our freedom, 
And we'll show that we, brothers, are of the Kozak nation.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION (to 2003):

Ukraine has not perished, neither her glory, nor freedom,
Upon us, fellow--Ukrainians, fate shall smile once more.
Our enemies will vanish, like dew in the morning sun,
And we too shall dwell, brothers, in a free land of our own.

CHORUS:
We'll lay down our souls and bodies to attain our freedom,
And we'll show that we, brothers, are of the Kozak nation.
We'll lay down our souls and bodies to attain our freedom,
And we'll show that we, brothers, are of the Kozak nation.

We'll stand together for freedom, from the Sian to the Don,
We will not allow others to rule in our motherland.
The Black Sea will smile and grandfather Dnipro will rejoice,
For in our own Ukraine fortune shall flourish again.

CHORUS

Our persistence and our sincere toils will be rewarded,
And freedom's song will resound throughout all of Ukraine.
Echoing off the Carpathians, and rumbling across the steppes,
Ukraine's fame and glory will be known among all nations.

CHORUS
