SKVR textEnglish
Maitoa etsitään tällä luvulla:
Alku:
1Maitoni on Manalle viety,My milk has been taken to Mana,
2Lehmän tuoma Tuonelahan.The cow's gift to Tuonela.
3Käyös maitoni Manalta,Go fetch my milk from Mana,
4Lehmän tuoma Tuonelasta,The cow's gift from Tuonela,
5Turpiemalla tukulla,With a bundled snout,
6Varavammalla varalla.With a safeguarded blemish,
7Anna maitoset maruhut,Give the milky droplets,
8Anna uhkuvat utaret!Give the swelling udders!
3:ena iltana lypsää lehmä, kun tämän lukoo ja leppä veellä valuttaa hänen.
