Rauvan havan luku.
1Voi Sinuvas Rauda RaukaAlas, you Sinuvas, Iron Rauka
2Rauda rauka raito ruonaIron Rauka, striped as a reed
3Teräs teho päivällinenSteel's might, daylight essence
4Poikasi teki pahaaYour son committed evil
5Lapsesi tihoa SytäYour child bears the guilt
6Tule työsi tuntemahaanCome to know your deeds
7Vikasi parandamahaan.To mend your faults
