1Tule, isä, Tuutarista,Come, father, from Tuutari,
2viere, isä, Viipursta,draw near, father, from Viipuri,
3tuo pojalle puotihattu,bring the son a store-bought hat,
4tyttärelle tyynyvuoru!the daughter a pillow's cover!
5Tytär viijjää kyllää,The daughter bears away plenty,
6poika pellon pehmittää,the son softens the field,
7aijankolkan kollahtaa.time's corner collapses.
