As Wainamonien played
The game turned into games
Joy tuned to joy
Many animals came

When the song rings out
And this song begins
I sing silver, I sing gold
Strange things

The bear climbed up the valley
There was no animal in the grove
That did not shy away from the path
To be near the harp

I sing a bird
And when it sings
It rains gold and it rains silver
Its song begins

From Wainamoinen's eyes
Clear tears pressed
Large as birch leaves
Full of hope, full of longing

When the song rings out (when the song rings out)
And this song begins (and this song begins)
I sing silver, I sing gold
Strange things
