SKVR textEnglish
1Luur luur lutten paimenLuur luur, snow's shepherd
2Minä vaevane vuohten paimenI, the wretched goat-herder
3Aja karjas tenne puoleDrive the herd hitherward
4Tääl on piikap_pienokaiseHere's a dainty little maid
5Tääl o heinäh_hienokaiseHere's hay of finest sort
6Tääl o mustika mustaHere's bilberry black-dark
7Tääl o mansika makjaHere's strawberry sweet-ripe
8Ja puolame puolin kypsä.And half of them half-ripe
