from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Missä armahani?
Language: Finnish (Suomi) 
Our translations:  GER
Miss' on, kussa minun hyväni,
miss' asuvi armahani,
missä istuvi iloni,
kulla maalla marjaseni?
Ei kuulu ääntävän ahoilla,
lyövän leikkiä lehoissa,
ei kuulu saloilta soitto,
kukunta ei kunnahilta.
Oisko armas astumassa
marjani matelemassa,
oma kulta kulkemassa,
valkia vaeltamassa;
Toisin torveni puhuisi,
vaaran rinnat vastoaisi,
saisi salot sanelemista,
joka kumpu kukkumista,
lehot leikkiä pitäisi,
ahot ainaista iloa.
