by Juhana Heikki Erkko (1849 - 1906)

Luonnon yö
Language: Finnish (Suomi) 
On luonnon yö kuin pääskynen,
Se siisti, puhdas lintunen:
Se missä laskee siipensä,
On siellä rauhaa, lempeä,
Kuin metsän pirtissä.

Tuo mulle yö, älä myrskyä
Sun siivissäsi lennätä --
Yö jälkeen raskaan päivätyön! --
Oi, toisit onnellisen yön,
Kuin alla tähtivyön!

Oi, pääsky mustasiipinen,
Sun rintasi on valkoinen:
Kun siipes lentoon laukeaa,
Niin kirkas aamu aukeaa
Ja laulusta soi maa.
