SKVR textEnglish

Kun ne o kirnunna, nii se o ollunna se para. Ne o seolonna sitä ja sanonna:

1Synny para, synny para.Be born, foremost one, be born, foremost one. / Be born and thrive, be born and thrive. / Be born, child, be born, child. [context-dependent]

Se on kantanna kirnuun voita.

(Kun myö ennen lapsena tehtii riepupentuja, nii ne sano, että "seolokeeha työ, niin syntyy para".)
