Tekst piosenki
Taltu, orhi vaahtoharja
tyyny tahtia tasaten
Viivyttele vsymist
valvo aamuhun vasiten
Myhn yhn ratsastaisin
harjaan tarttuisin haluten
Kuuhut kuultaa vaskisena
varteesi varjot kuvaten
Kuuma hohkaa, reidet painaa
vartta ratsuni hopeisen
Hiki virtaa vaskiorhin
valtona vaahtoa valuvi
Metsn veisit syvemmlle
oksat raapii, vitsat viilt
Yhn veisit, vaskiorhi
henki hyryten karaja
Viivyttele vsymist
valvo aamuhun vasiten!

==English translation==
Calm, my steed, with mane all foamy
Still down, stallion, pace on smoothly
Tarry yet, and do not tire,
Wakeful and unwavering until morning
Late till night I ride my stallion
Clinging to his mane with fingers dug
Woods awash with silvery moonshine
Shape the shadows on your sinews
Glowing heat and legs a-gliding
Along the sides of the silver stallion
Steaming sides, the sweet is flowing,
Flows the foam in torrents downwards
Take us deeper in the forests
Though the twigs they scratch all over
Lead me deep into the darkness
Gallop till you gasp for breath
Tarry yet and do not tire
Wakeful and unwavering until morning
