Lyrics of Historyja majho žyccia

Koĺki dzion, koĺki spatkanniaŭ
Novyja vobrazy i harady
Šerah padziej nas pakidaje
U sercy trymajem, idziem daliej

Historyja majho žyccia
Budzie sviacić jašče jarčej
U našaj kryvi sonca zajhraje
Usia pryhoažosć tvaich vačej

Dzie budzieš ty, ja adšukaju
Jarkija momanty znojdziem chučej
Sienniašni dzień stanie pačatkam
Novych žadanniaŭ, liepšych idej

Historyja majho žyccia
Budzie sviacić jašče jarčej
U našaj kryvi sonca zajhraje
Usia pryhoažosć tvaich vačej
