SKVR textEnglish

1Rupee maata maan luvalla,Begin to lie under the earth's sanction,

2Maan luvalla, puun luvalla,Under the earth's sanction, the tree's sanction,

3Kaiken kartanon luvalla!Under the entire homestead's sanction!

4Maarie miekkan', Jesus kilpen',Mary's sword, Jesus' shield,

6Herrani herättämä!Awakened by my Lord!
