Saapuu hetki toivottuni, Lankee uupuneeseen silmään Kauan kangastellut uni. Hyvät yöni heitän sille. Yöhön käyvän sielun tähti Viimeinen sa olit mulle. Jo on hetki pilkkopimeen: Siunaan sydämesi suuren, Menen maata Herran nimeen.

El momento que anhelaba desciende sobre mis ojos cansados el sueño que deseaba. Buenas noches, buenas noches, te digo cuando cruzas la noche, estrella de mi alma. Eras todo, eras todo lo que tenía y ahora la noche está tan oscura. Bendigo la grandeza de tu corazón y descanso en nombre del señor.
