| VARJELE JUMALA SOASTA | PRAYER AGAINST WAR |
| Varjele vakainen luoja, | Keep us, steadfast Creator |
| Kaitse kaunoinen Jumala, | and guard us, fair God |
| Kavioista vainovarsain, | from the hoofs of battle-foals |
| Sorkista sotahevosten! | the trotters of war-horses! |
| Varjele vakainen luoja, | Keep us, steadfast Creator |
| Kaitse kaunoinen Jumala, | and guard us, fair God |
| Rauan valkian varasta, | from white iron's hoard |
| Terän tuiman tutkamesta, | the harsh blade's tip |
| Tykin suuren suun e'estä, | from before the big cannon's mouth |
| Rautakirnujen kiasta! | the jaws of the iron churns! |
| Varjele vakainen luoja, | Keep us, steadfast Creator |
| Kaitse kaunoinen Jumala, | and guard us, fair God |
| Suurilta sotakeoilta, | from great battlefields |
| Uron tappotanterilta, | from a fellow's killing-grounds |
| Jossa lyiy miestä lyöpi, | where lead smites a man |
| Tinapalli paiskoavi; | the tin ball hurls him |
| Jossa pää pahoin menevi, | where his head goes ill |
| Sekä kaula katkiavi, | and his neck breaks too |
| Hivus hieno lankiavi, | and his fine hair falls |
| Tukka turhi'in tulevi! | his locks come to grief! |
