| Rannalle himmeän lahden
| On the shore of a dim bay
|
| Aurinko laskenut on
| The sun has set
|
| Kutsu jo soi iltahuudon
| Call the bell already
|
| Taakka jo laskettu on
| The burden has already been calculated
|
| Taattoa muista sä silloin
| I'm sure you'll remember then
|
| Askel jo uupunut on
| The step is already exhausted
|
| Lapset ja lastemme lapset
| Children and our children's children
|
| Teidän nyt vuoronne on
| Now it's your turn
|
| Hoivatkaa, kohta poissa on veljet
| Take care, the brothers will soon be gone
|
| Muistakaa, heille kallis ol' maa
| Remember, the country is dear to them
|
| Kertokaa lasten lapsille lauluin
| Tell the children's children in songs
|
| Himmetä ei muistot koskaan saa
| Memories never fade
|
| Hymni soi holvissa hiljaa
| The anthem played quietly in the vault
|
| Tummana kaipuuta soi
| In the dark, longing rings
|
| Aika on korjannut viljaa
| Time has harvested the grain
|
| Sarka jo kynnetty on
| The field has already been plowed
|
| Ammoin me marssimme kahden
| Ammoin we marched two
|
| Tulta löi taivas ja maa
| Fire struck heaven and earth
|
| Rannoilta Äänisen lahden
| From the beaches of Ääninen Bay
|
| Kelle nyt kertoa saa
| Who can I tell now?
|
| Hoivatkaa, kohta poissa on veljet
| Take care, the brothers will soon be gone
|
| Muistakaa, heille kallis ol' maa
| Remember, the country is dear to them
|
| Kertokaa lasten lapsille lauluin
| Tell the children's children in songs
|
| Himmetä ei muistot koskaan saa
| Memories never fade
|
| Laineissa Laatokan mahti
| The power of Laatoka in the waves
|
| Kahlita kenkään ei voi
| You can't even tie a shoe
|
| Veljet sen rantoja vahti
| Brothers guarded its shores
|
| Konsa on koittava koi
| Konsa is a moth
|
| Ylväänä Karjalan heimo
| The proud tribe of Karelia
|
| Tuskaansa kantanut on
| He has borne his pain
|
| Maa-äiti suojaansa sulkee
| Mother Earth closes her shelter
|
| Vartija poissa jo on
| The guard is already gone
|
| Hoivatkaa, kohta poissa on veljet
| Take care, the brothers will soon be gone
|
| Muistakaa, heille kallis ol' maa
| Remember, the country is dear to them
|
| Kertokaa lasten lapsille lauluin
| Tell the children's children in songs
|
| Himmetä ei muistot koskaan saa | Memories never fade |
