SKVR textEnglish

Aitaa-raitaa pantiin joukon ympäri, joka oli istumassa lattialla "naureina":

1Aitaa, raitaa, kivikkohon, kavikkohon,Fence [with] willow, into the stony place, into the hoof-stone place,

2Vaskisilla seipähillä, kultaisilla aijaksilla,With copper stakes, with golden rails,

3Jott'ei nuo Piippolan, PaappolanSo that those from Piippola, Paappola,

4Pahat akat pääsisi mun naurismaahani.The evil hags would not reach my turnip field.

10 Sitten käytiin tutkimassa "naurista". Koeteltiin tukasta: "joko on kaalella?" ja leuvan alta loskautettiin: "onko raikas?" Hampaat kun loskahti, niin: "raikas on!"
