Varpunen pienoinen, syönyt kesäeinehen, The little sparrow, having eaten its summer meal, järven aalto jäätynyt talvipakkasessa. the lake's wave has frozen in the winter frost. Pienen pirtin portailla oli tyttökulta: On the porch of a small cabin stood a dear girl: – Tule, varpu, riemulla, ota siemen multa! "Come, sparrow, joyfully, take a seed from me!" Joulu on, koditon varpuseni onneton, It is Christmas, my homeless, unfortunate sparrow, tule tänne riemulla, ota siemen multa! come here joyfully, take a seed from me! Tytön luo nyt riemuiten lensi varpukulta: To the girl, the golden sparrow now flew joyfully: – Kiitollisna siemenen otan kyllä sulta. "Gratefully, I will surely take the seed from you." Palkita Jumala tahtoo kerran sinua. God will one day reward you. kiitollisna siemenen otan kyllä sulta! Gratefully, I will surely take the seed from you! – En mä ole, lapseni, lintu tästä maasta, "I am not, my child, a bird from this land, olen pieni veljesi, tulin taivahasta. I am your little brother; I came from heaven. Siemenen pienoisen, jonka annoit köyhällen, The small seed that you gave to the poor, pieni sai sun veljesi enkeleitten maasta. was received by your little brother in the land of angels." ## Learning Language **Finnish** ## Topics #455837 #206263 #401303 ## Metadata -
