JOS MUN TUTTUNI TULISI | MISSING HIM |
Jos mun tuttuni tulisi, ennen nähtyni näkyisi, tuntisin tutun tulosta, arvajaisin astunnasta. | Should my treasure come my darling step by I'd know him by his coming recognize him by his step though he were still a mile off or two miles away. |
Virstan vastahan menisin, virstan kaksi kapsahtaisin veräjiä purkamahan, aitoja alentamahan. | As mist I'd go out as smoke I would reach the yard as sparks I would speed as flame I would fly; I'd bowl along beside him pout before his face. |
Jos mun tuttuni tulisi, ennen nähtyni näkyisi, sille kättä käppäjäisin, vaikk' ois käärme kämmenpäässä. | I would touch his hand though a snake were in his palm I would kiss his mouth though doom stared him in the face I'd climb on his neck though death were on his neck bones I'd stretch beside him though his side were all bloody. |
Sille suuta suikkajaisin, vaikk' ois suu suen veressä. Vielä kaulahankaa puisin, vaikk' ois kalma kaulan päällä. | And yet my treasure has not his mouth bloody from a wolf his hands greasy from a snake nor his neck in death's clutches; His mouth is of melted fat his lips are as of honey his hands golden, fair his neck like a heather stalk. |
