Ahkeruus on Ilomme
Language: Finnish (Suomi) 
Aamun kirkas aurinkoinen
taivahalta paistelee,
iloisena lintupieni
taasenlaulelee.

Niinkuin puitten lintusetkin
ilomielin laulaen,
alamme me lapsosetkin
työmme riemuiten.

Fleiß ist unserer Freude
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Finnish (Suomi) 
Die helle Morgensonne
scheint vom Himmel,
fröhlich singt
der kleine Vogel wieder.

Wie die Vögel
in den Bäumen singen,
so beginnen auch wir Kinder
freudig unsre Arbeit.

From the Kinderdorf Lieder score, which says “Inhalt in freier Übersetzung”
