In all this life,

While the golden moon shines, 360

From there, from the homes of Tuoni,

From the eternal dwellings of Mana.

Prudent old Wäinämöinen

Spoke a word, thus uttered:

‘Can my doom have already come, 365

The day of misfortune have lighted on my head,

In these dwellings of Tuonela,

In the abodes of Manala.’
