SKVR textEnglish
1Jesus ajoi tietä myöten,Jesus rode along the road,
2Koska hän mailman waelsi.As he wandered the world,
3Tuli riisi wastaan,A demon came forth,
4Ja ampui hewosen Jesukselta.And shot the horse from Jesus.
5Jesus sitt' maahan meni,Jesus then went to the ground,
6Jesus sen paranti.Jesus healed it.
