SKVR textEnglish
1Piun, paun, palarin, paun, paum.Piun, paun, burner, paun, paum.
2Vanha palari on kuollut.The old burner has died.
3Tänä päivänä kellot soitettiin,Today the bells were rung,
4Huomena maahan kannettiin.Tomorrow [they] were carried to the earth.
5Kettu kellot soitti,The fox rang the bells,
6Harakka hauvan kaivoi,The magpie dug the grave,
7Pikku lintu virren veisaa.The little bird sang the hymn.
