We say двайцять

That means twenty

We say двайцять

That means twenty in Ukrainian (2)

There's a special magic word

That you should know,

Oh have you heard?

The magic word that you should know is "найцять"

We take the numbers one to nine

And we put найцять right behind

And now we all now how to count to двайцять

Приспів.

Eleven equals one plus ten

And we all know, one's один

So eleven in Ukrainian's одинайцять

Twelve is next, that's two plus ten

Two is два, so now we can

Say twelve in Ukrainian's одинайцять

Thirteen equals ten plus three

And so by now you all can see

That thirteen in Ukrainian is тринайцять

Чотирнайцять that's fourteen

And five plus ten equals fifteen

So fifteen in Ukrainian is п'ятнайцять

Приспів.

Sixteen is the next in line

We know that's ten plus six

Шістнайцять is the word we use

Cause шість we know is six

Seventeen and eighteen are

The next two we should know

Сімнайцять and then вісімнайцять

Just one more to go

One more number's all we need

Then twenty here we come

Nine plus ten is nineteen

Once we learn it, then we're done

Nine is девять, that we know

So nineteen's девятнайцять

So now we all can count to twenty

Yes, all the way to двайцять

Приспів.

Eleven! Одинайцять!

Twelve! Дванайцять!

...

Twenty! Двайцять!
