Translation of the song lyrics Varpunen jouluaamuna - Tarja

Varpunen jouluaamuna (original)

Lumi on jo peittanyt kukat laaksosessa,
jarven aalto jaatynyt talvipakkasessa.
Varpunen pienoinen, syonyt kesaeinehen,
jarven aalto jaatynyt talvi pakkasessa.
Pienen pirtin portailla oli tyttokulta:
tule, varpu, riemulla, ota siemen multa!
Joulu on, koditon varpuseni onneton,
tule tanne riemulla, ota siemen multa!
Tyton luo nyt riemuiten lensi varpukulta:
kiitollisna siemenen otan kylla sulta.
Palkita Jumala tahtoo kerran sinua.
kiitollisna siemenen otan kylla sulta!
En ma ole, lapseni, varpu tasta maasta,
olen pieni veljesi, tulin taivahasta.
Siemenen pienoisen, jonka annoit koyhallen,
pieni sai sun veljesi enkeleitten maasta.

Varpunen jouluaamuna (translation)

The snow has already covered the flowers in the valley,
the lake wave froze in the winter frost.
Sparrow small, eaten in summer,
lake wave frozen in winter frost.
There was a girl's gold on the steps of the small bar:
come, sparrow, rejoice, take the seed of the mold!
Christmas is, my homeless sparrow unhappy,
come tanne rejoice, take the seed of the mold!
Tyton now happily flew the sparrow gold:
grateful for the seed I take yes to the feathers.
Reward God wills you once.
grateful the seed I take yes to you!
I am not, my child, a sparrow of this land,
I am your little brother, I came from heaven.
The little seed you gave to the poor,
the little one got the sun from the land of your brothers' angels.
