Tuijotin tulehen kauvan
Language: Finnish (Suomi) 
Tuijotin tulehen kauvan,
liikuttelin lieden puita,
ajattelin armastani,
muistin mustakulmaistani.

Hiilet hehkui, kuvat kulki,
ajat armahat samosi,
telilii suviset linnut,
keikkuivat kesäiset päivät,--
poski hehkui, suu hymysi,
silmät muita muistutteli.

Vierin maita, vierin soita,
vierin suuria saloja,
salossa savu sininen,
savun alla armas mökki,
mökissä ihana impi,
kultakangasta kutovi,
helmellistä helskyttävi.

Kelle kangas kultaloimi?
Häiksi metsän morsiolle.
Kelle neiti näätärinta?
Hiihtäjälle Niiden korven.

Ei hyvä hylätyn kauvan
liikutella lieden puita,
vesi silmihin tulevi,
pää käsihin tuiskahtavi,
kurkussa korina käypi,
sylkytys sydänalassa.
