Sydämeni laulu
Language: Finnish (Suomi)
Tuonen lehto, öinen lehto!
Siell' on hieno hietakehto,
sinnepä lapseni saatan.
Siell' on lapsen lysti olla,
Tuonen herran vainiolla
kaitsia Tuonelan karjaa.
Siell' on lapsen lysti olla,
illan tullen tuuditella
helmassa Tuonelan immen.
Onpa kullan lysti olla,
kultakehdoss' kellahdella,
kuullella kehräjälintuu.
Tuonen viita, rauhan viita!
Kaukana on vaino, riita,
kaukana kavala maailma.

Meins Herzens Lied
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Finnish (Suomi)
Hain des Dunkels, Hain des Todes!
Fein die Wiege dort im Sande,
dorthin ich mein Kind geleite.
Dort wird es dann glücklich werden,
auf des Meister Todes Fluren
seine Herden zu behüten.
Dort wird es dann glücklich werden,
und im Schoß der Magd des Todes
abendlich gewieget werden.
Glücklich wird mein Liebling werden,
in der gold’nen Wiege liegend
Abendvogels Lied zu lauschen.
Hain des Todes, Hain des Friedens!
Weit weg sind Verfolgung, Tücke,
fern sind Niedertracht und Hader.
