SKVR textEnglish
Lapsille:
1Mie se tuuvin tuota lasta,I brought that child,
2Äkäpussin ämmän lasta,The angry hag's child,
3Vihaisen miniän lasta.The wrathful daughter-in-law's child.
4Tuutin lasta tuonelaa,I lulled the child toward Tuonela,
5Tuutin tuonelan tuppoa,I lulled [it] to Tuonela's chamber,
6Tuon ei tuule tuulet kaik,There, no winds all blow,
7Ei soa satteet kaikNor rains all fall,
8Nurmen Tuomaan tuppoa,To the meadow-brought chamber,
9Hiekka Heikin kammarii.To sandy Heikki's vault.
