Vallinkorvan laulu

Usjast' tulloop' miull aika ettee
Ku pirttii uutee mie kullan toi
Anno'n avaimet kulla kättee
Ja huilut iloisest' vastaan soi
Siljä mailman tie

Lemme liekki kanss usjast' sammuu
Rakkaus kauniski kattoo pois
Syöme sisuspuol' sillo tummuu
A ken ei rintaisa riemuks jois
Liukas mailman tie

Syömest' huuhtelen mailman pilkat
Mut orret päälläin on mustuneet
Kunnes tanssin ja laulan illat
Jos ois miu ortein viel uuvet
Synkkä mailman tie!

Vallinkorvan Ballad

Soon my life's embers will fade away
As to my dwelling I bring my bride
Keys into her fair hand I'll convey
And joyful flutes will play with pride
The world's paths, so sly

Our love's flame will soon burn out, I fear
Love's beauty vanish, fade away
The core of my being will darken in tear
Who's breast doesn't know joy's sway
The world's paths, so sly

I'll cleanse the scorn of the world in the tide
Yet my perches on trees have grown black
Till I dance and sing evenings beside
If my steps were but vigorous and sprightly
The world's paths, so black!
