NUKU NUKU
Nuku nuku nurmilintu
Vasy vasy vastarakki
nuku kun mie nukutan

kuro Kiisan silmat kiinni
Anna unta aamuun asti.
Kuro Kiisan silmat kiinni,
anna unta aamuun asti.
Nuku nuku nurmilintu,
Vasy vasy vastarakki.
Nuku kun mie nukutan,
vasy kun mie vasytan.
Nuku kun mie nukutan,
vasy kun mie vasytan…

SLEEP
Sleep. О small bird,
Slumber О wagtail,
Sleep as I rock thee,
Slumber as I cradle thee.
God. let this child sleep,
Mary, let this child slumber,
Close her eyes
Let her sleep till dawn.
Close her eyes
Let her sleep till dawn.
Sleep, О small bird,
Slumber, О wagtail.
Sleep as I rock thee, Slumber as I cradle thee.
