1914, Maksim Bahdanovič, Вянок, page 22:Іскрацца зорак сьняжынкі маркотна,
Збожжэ пакрылося шызай расой…
Кіньмо жэ думкі аб долі гаротнай,
Хоць бы на момэнт спачынем душой!- Iskracca zórak sʹnjažynki markótna,
Zbóžže pakrylósja šyzaj rasój…
Kinʹmó že dumki ab dóli harótnaj,
Xocʹ by na móment spačynjem dušój! - The snowflake stars are sparkling bleakly,
The crops are covered with a bluish dew…
Let's stop thinking of the meager fate,
And at least take a moment to relax our souls!
