Accompagnato: Der jüngste Tag wird bald sein Ziel erreichen

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: ENG FIN

Der jüngste Tag wird bald sein Ziel erreichen,
und was die Welt nicht gläubet, wird geschehn.
Mich dünkt, es lassen sich schon Zeichen
am Himmel und auf Erden sehn.
Die Zeit ist kurz, drum tobt der arge Feind,
ach denkt doch dran, ihr sichern Leute,
wer weiß, ob nicht der Richter annoch heute
plötzlich erscheint.

Tuomiopäivä on jo lähellä meitä

Language: Finnish (Suomi) after the German (Deutsch)

Tuomiopäivä on jo lähellä meitä,
ja tapahtuu se, mitä maailma ei tapahtuvaksi usko.
Minusta tuntuu siltä, että merkit olisivat jo
nähtävissä taivaassa ja maan päällä.
Aikaa on vähän, siksi paholainen raivoaa,
voi, te, jotka luulette olevanne turvassa, miettikääpä,
kuka voi olla varma, ettei Tuomari
yhtäkkiä ilmaannu paikalle vielä tänään.
