SKVR textEnglish
Lehmäin pihallenpano-sanat.
1Pane panta pihlajasta,Place the wrought [thing] from rowan,
2Pane raudasta,Place [one] from iron,
3Rakenna rautamuuri,Build an iron wall,
4Jolla suljet suden suun,With which you shut the wolf's mouth,
5Kaitset karhun kämmenen,Guard against the bear's paw,
6Sekä pahan ämmän puuskat.And the evil hag's blasts [of magic].
