SKVR textEnglish
Paisumille.
1Painu, paha, paisumasta,Depart, evil, from swelling,
2Alene ylenemästä,Descend from rising,
3Käpene, hiien keäpä!Begone, Hiisi's creature!
4Ei oo siihen sioasi,You have no place here,
5Ei siaiskaan tarvista,Nor need for a place,
6Ei tarpeiskaan himoa.No craving for need either.
7Kavoa niinkuin valaFlee! Like an oath [or lightning],
8Jesuksen kirjasta katoova.Vanish from Jesus's book.
9Ulos luuta lussomasta,Out from gnawing bones,
10Jäseniä jänttämästä,From tearing limbs,
11Luun luota, lihan välistä,From bone, from flesh's midst,
12Kuun kuulumattomaksi,To the moon's unheard domain,
13Päivän näkymättömähän,To the sun's unseen reach,
14Alta kivuttomaksi,Beneath to painlessness,
15Peältä tuntumattomaksi.Above to untouchableness.
16Puhun suulla puhtahalla,I speak with a pure mouth,
17Herran hengellä hyvällä,With the Lord's good spirit,
18Lämpöisellä löyhyttelen.With warmth I breathe gently.
19Johon sormeni sopivat,Where my fingers fit,
20Sopikohon Luojan sormet.May the Creator's fingers fit.
