Դու միալար մի՜ լար,անգին, այս կույր-անբույր գիշերով,
Երգիդ վերքին թող իմ հոգին ծածկի ոսկե հուշերով:
Ես քեզ մի հեզ, գթոտ մոր պես մի ջինջ-անջինջ պատգամ տամ,
Ցավից, դավից մնաս անտես,
Ու միշտ անվիշտ ու փարթամ:
Քեզ ինչ, թե ինձ բաժին մնա քո լեռ ու բեռ տառապանք:
Ես իմ դժխեմ կյանքում անմահ և' երգ, և' վերք, և' փրկանք:
