SKVR textEnglish
Lasta vihaava "kriisi" paranee, kuin joku lasta puhelee ja lukee:
a.
1Voi sie hurjan huorilapsi,Woe, you fierce whore's child,
2Tytön herjan helmaheitto,Scorned girl, skirt-flinger,
3Kun sie syömähän sytäyhuit,When you began to devour,
4Kaluamaan kaivaelitDug deep to claim your prize,
5Ihohon imehnis-raukan,Into the skin of the human wretch,
6Karvahan emon kapehen,The narrow place of the hairy mother,
7Emon tuoman ruumihiseen,Into the mother-given body,
8Vaivasehen vartalohon.Into the wretched mortal frame.
Lapsen isä omalla lusikallaan lasta painelee ja lukee - jos mahdollista "halteissaan" - ja kipeitä jäseniä äidin sorokasta tai lakkipaikasta läpi pureskellaan:
b.
9Ota, luhti, leukaluusi,Take, water-demon, your jawbone,
10Hiisi, harvat hampahasi,Hiisi, your gap-toothed maw,
11Syömästä, kaluamasta,From eating, from gnawing,
12Puremasta, jäytämästä,From biting, from tearing,
13Ihosta imehnis raukan,From the skin of the human wretch,
14Emon tuoman ruumihista,From the mother-given flesh,
15Vaivasesta vartalosta.From the suffering mortal form.
