Souda, souda, sinisorsa
Language: Finnish (Suomi)
Souda, souda, sinisorsa, souda tähän rantaan; pesäs tänne rakenna sen ritvakoivun kantaan! Laske, laske, pursi pieni, laske valkamaani; purrestasi neito nuori, astu asuntaani! Tääll' on sija suoritettu sammalista sulle; tule, tule, kultaseni kumppaniksi mulle! Tääll' on aallot armahat ja suuret hongat huojuu; solkikoivut soreasti aallon helmaan nuojuu.
