Viimesen kerran [English translation]

For the last time I left my home

Daddy was stamping his feet.

Mommy was crying and said from the window,that

Now your misery will begin.

For the last time I left my home,

I was crying quietly,

Now as I have been made to wander in

These strands of the world.

For the last time I left my home

Carrying my clothes

All those boys coming across me

Were my old dates.

And for what did you come and fool me

When I was just a child,

Why didn't you let me grow old

And become skillful.

And for what did you come to fool me and

Bring me misery,

Why didn't you stay home with

Your good mother.

And for what did you come and fool my

Young heart,

When you made me bare misery

Heavy like a sand mountain.

If I had died when I was a child

In my godparent's swaddle,

Then I hadn't been thrown

There in the shoulder of the world.
