Taivas sylissäni [English translation]

Who put the star into the baby's eyes?

Who removed the darkness from the shepherds' night?

Who tied a wreath unto your hair?

Wise ones tell me, who brought me my dear child?

You are just like everyone else, child of promises

My child, will you bring hope into this world?

You are the treasure of the hearts, how can I protect you?

Am I to carry heaven itself in my skirts?

Who brought tears into the baby's eyes?

Why do you cling to your mother trembling?

Now the shadows repeat it, the angel has gone,

I remember all the beauty, though I can not understand

You are just like everyone else, child of promises

My child, will you bring hope into this world?

You are the treasure of the hearts, how can I protect you?

Am I to carry heaven itself in my skirts?

Here every day this heavenly joy brings

A gentleness, a love into people's eyes

The words that I heard I will never forget

Come what may, they will always give me strength

You are just like everyone else, child of promises

My child, will you bring hope into this world?

You are the treasure of the hearts, how can I protect you?

Am I to carry heaven itself in my skirts?

Who put the star into the baby's eyes?

The eternal star shines above Betlehem
