by Yrjö Vilhelm Kaijärvi (1896 - 1971), as Yrjö Teppo

Pyyntö
Language: Finnish (Suomi) 
Älä anna mun tyytyä tähän! 
 . . . . . . . . . .

— The rest of this text is not

added as soon as we obtain it. —

Note: differences exist in Stanzas 2 and 3:
Merikanto has the following in op. 134c:

Pois kiskaise päältäni katto, 
jos taivaasi tähdet se peittää!      
Lyö hajalle majani liesi, 
jos liikaa se lämpöä heittää! 

Pane käteeni kulkijan sauva, 
jos vie se mun lähemmä Sua! 
Jos saavutan kukkulan yhden,     
suo toisen jo kangastua! 
The original poem has:
Lyö hajalle majani liesi, 
jos liikaa se lämpöä valaa. 
Vie päältäni suojaava katto, 
jos taivaasi tähdet se salaa. 

Pane käteeni kulkijan sauva, 
Sua lähemmä jos se mun johtaa. 
Suo noustulta kukkulalta 
lumivuorten ja huippujen hohtaa.
