Kuu kaakon yllä [English translation]

A ball at the foot of the cross, anchors hang on a rope

Every hour the heart beats bygone times

Oars out of stalks of hay, thwarts out of the tanner's beams

As we back the oars of the bark ship with even stokes

It's windy, it blows from the north-west

Surely watches over our sleep

That moon over the south-east

Longing together with consolation cross a bridge at sea

Surely watches over our sleep

That moon over the south-east

Morning dawns and we're already waiting for the night

The shore is taken over by water, is anyone of us man enough

To steer and anyone who as time to

Migratory birds in the sky, why would they return

They fly themselves headwind

Penniless*, like us too

Surely watches over our sleep

That moon over the south-east

Longing together with consolation cross a bridge at sea

Surely watches over our sleep

That moon over the south-east

Morning dawns and we're already waiting for the night

If we had real oars, we could row

If we only had rowlocks, we'd fetch morning from the opposite shore

If we only had oars, we could row

If we only had rowlocks, even just the rowlocks

And someone who'd want to fetch the dawning morning

Surely watches over our sleep

That moon over the south-east

Longing together with consolation cross a bridge over the Great River

Surely watches over our sleep

That moon over the south-east

The morning dawns and we're already waiting for the night

Moon over the south-east.
