Tass' On NainenTäss'on nainen tuulen tuomatuulen tuoma ve'en vetämä meren aaltojen ajama meren tyrskyn työntelemä Kuin mie käynen laulamahan laulan mie meret mesiksi suoloiksi meren somerot meren hiekat hernehiksi Yhen vyöni vyötännällä yhen paitani panolla solkeni solittamalla polkimeni painamalla Nouse luotoni lovesta syntini syvästä maasta syntini syvästä maasta haavan alta haltiainen. (Lyrics: Trad. Music: S. Kurki-Suonio) Here's a Woman Here's a woman, brought by northwind brought by northwind, pulled by waters, washed ashore by waves of oceans, drifted here on rising billows. When but I begin my chanting I'll sing seas to mead and honey bottom gravel all to saltgrains sands of sea to beans uncounted Just by once my girdle tying, just by once my shirt on taking once by fastening my buckles once my feet in shoes by thrusting. Rise, my nature, off the earth now, lift my sin from ground beneath me, lift my sin from ground beneath me, fay from underneath the aspen. |
