Текст и перевод песни Tarja Turunen - Varpunen jouluaamuna

Varpunen jouluaamuna

Lumi on jo peittänyt kukat laaksosessa,
Järven aalto jäätynyt talvipakkasessa.
Varpunen pienoinen, syönyt kesäeinehen,
Järven aalto jäätynyt talvi pakkasessa.

Pienen pirtin portailla oli tyttökulta:
Tule, varpu, riemulla, ota siemen multa!
Joulu on, koditon varpuseni onneton,
Tule tänne riemulla, ota siemen multa!

Tytön luo nyt riemuiten lensi varpukulta:
Kiitollisna siemenen otan kyllä sulta.
Palkita Jumala tahtoo kerran sinua.
Kiitollisna siemenen otan kyllä sulta!

En mä ole, lapseni, lintu tästä maasta,
Olen pieni veljesi, tulin taivahasta.
Siemenen pienoisen, jonka annoit köyhällen,
Pieni sai sun veljesi enkeleitten maasta.
Siemenen pienoisen, jonka annoit köyhällen,
Pieni sai sun veljesi enkeleitten maasta.

Sparrow on Christmas morning

The snow has already covered the flowers in the valley,
The waves of the lake are frozen in the winter cold.
Little sparrow, having eaten summer food,
The waves of the lake are frozen in the winter cold.

On the steps of the small cottage was a beautiful girl:
Come, sparrow, with joy, take the seed from me!
It's Christmas, you poor homeless sparrow,
Come here with joy, take the seed from me!

To the girl now flew the sparrow with joy:
Gratefully I will take the seed from you.
God will want to reward you one day.
Gratefully I will take the seed from you!

I am not, my child, a bird from this land,
I am your little brother, I have come from heaven.
The little seed, which you gave to the poor,
Your little brother received from the land of angels.
The little seed, which you gave to the poor,
Your little brother received from the land of angels.
