SKVR textEnglish

1Tule nukku nuaburista,Come, sleeper, from the neighbor's place,

2torkku toisesta talosta ...Dozer from another household,

3Nukuta Jumala lasta,Lull God's child to sleep,

4magavuta mallitoinda,Settle the model child to rest,

5liilo, luuli ...[Charm words: liilo, luuli]

6Eikä tiijä mamma raukka,The poor mother does not know,

7missä lapset matkattaneh,Where the children have been taken,

8matkattaneh mual vai merel,Taken on land or at sea,

9vaigo synkäl on saloll ...Or in the dark wilderness.
