Ukrainian original lyrics

There is widely known Ukrainian folk song with almost the same text:

Гей, десь там, де чорні води,
Сів на коня козак молодий.
Плаче молода дівчина,
Їде козак з України.

Гей! Гей! Гей, соколи!
Оминайте гори, ліси, доли.
Дзвін, дзвін, дзвін, дзвіночку,
Степовий жайвороночку
Гей! Гей! Гей, соколи!
Оминайте гори, ліси, доли.
Дзвін, дзвін, дзвін, дзвіночку,
Мій степовий дзвін, дзвін, дзвін

Жаль, жаль за милою,
За рідною стороною.
Жаль, жаль серце плаче,
Більше її не побачу.

Меду, вина наливайте
Як загину поховайте
На далекій Україні
Коло милої дівчини.

Гей, десь там, де чорні води
Сів на коня козак молодий
Плаче молода дівчина
Їде козак з України

I highly doubt that Ukrainian lyrics are the original ones. They seem to be poorly translated from Polish. Some rhymes are gone in the translation, and the phrase "Дзвін, дзвін, дзвін, дзвіночку" just doesn't make sense in Ukrainian (though the corresponding phrase "Dzwoń, dzwoń, dzwoń dzwoneczku" is perfectly valid in Polish). However, I can attest that the song and these lyrics are widely known in Ukraine, so perhaps it could be called an Ukrainian "folk" song in a sense. 2A02:A31A:A03E:BE00:2F1D:B313:897C:B5B4 (talk) 00:52, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
