Chosen for Diff

Unser Leben währet siebnzig Jahr,
und wenn es hoch kömmt,
so sinds achtzig Jahr,
und wenn es köstlich gewesen ist,
so ist es Müh und Arbeit gewesen,
denn es fähret schnell dahin,
als flögen wir davon.

Elämämme kestää 70 vuotta

Language: Finnish (Suomi) after the German (Deutsch)

Chosen for Diff

Elämämme kestää 70 vuotta,
ja enimmilläänkin 
niitä on vain kahdeksankymmentä,
ja parhaimmillaankin
se on täynnä työtä ja vaivaa,
sillä se haihtuu nopeasti pois,
ikäänkuin lentäisimme jonnekin.
