Kaksi laulua V. A. Koskenniemen sanoihin

by Toivo Kuula (1883 - 1918)

1. Kesäyö kirkkomaalla
 (Sung text)

Language: Finnish (Suomi) 
Omaa kirkkauttansa kummeksuin
kesäyöhyt maille laskeuupi.
Syviin aatoksiinsa unehtuin
puiset ristit yössä uneksuupi.

Elon onni, lempi, ystävyys,
soi tänne kuin kaiku laulun lauhan.
Kaartuu ikihyvä ijäisyys
yli sydämeni suuren rauhan.

Täälä jossain lähelläni lienet,
-- tunnen ohitse sun kulkeneesi --
sa ken kerran uneksijan vienet
rauhan kotiin, pyhään kirkkauteesi.

2. Epilogi
 (Sung text)

Language: Finnish (Suomi) 
Katso, sun rintasi rauhassa mennehet kevähät nukkuu,
katso, sun rakkahat riemus ja tuskas on poissa.

Viileä onni sun ohimoillasi asuu, syysöiden onni.

Katso, on ylitse suvisten kenttäis kuolema käynyt.
Poissa on valoisat yöt ja tähkät on viikate vienyt.

Ylitse aavojen kenttäin katsovat illoin viluiset tähdet

Kuule, kuin askeltes alla nyt kaikaa kumea tanner!
Syvällä, povessa maan, yön kohdussa elämä uinuu.

Uutehen onneen, uutehen suvehen nousee ijäinen nuoruus.
