“Mun isän’ oli sotamies ja nuori, kauniskin, jo viisitoista vuotisna hän astui rivihin. Tiens’ aina kulki kunniaan, iloisin mielin kärsi vaan hän kylmää, nälkää, haavojaan, mun isän’ armahin.”

My father was a soldier young, the finest you might see; Took arms at fifteen, in two years he came to man's degree. The field of honor he could hold, He kept his station, gay and bold, In blood, in fire, in hunger, cold — Ay, such a man was he.
