"The others got heart, I got the harp."

"I sang to my dear dead mother"

"BLUE CROSS: Lord, great are my woes, / greater are your deeds, / do not think of me, / remember the unbaptised! // The Lord heard the bright one's cry, / he gave a sign, changed the girl / to a blue cross-tree ..."

"TUURI: Let not evermore, / let the gods celebrate / with mortal people! / The gods have long festivals, / man's life is fleeting, / swift as a wheel's turn ..."

"YLERMI: The church will fall down before / the mitten parts from the stone! / The walls will crumble before / the finger rots on the wall! / Before that, may a time come / too, another, harsher time / which will not bow down to death, / will not crawl off to Mana. // He spurred the horse, and the flames / engulfed his golden helmet. / The mitten's on the stone still."

"Hark! My ears are catching corncrake’s clicking,"

"LAPLAND SUMMER:"

"Outbursts blossom in Lapland rapidly"

"LAPIN KESÄ:"

"Lapissa kaikki kukkii nopeasti,"
