Engl. Trans  Auringon noustessa
(Veikko A. Koskenniemi)

See, oh my soul,
the sun rising
high above the roofs of the stony city,
high above the lies of centuries
feeling the pain,
see the brightness emerging!

See, oh my soul,
the bliss of life disappearing!
Like an immense temple
it arises before you;
under its vaults lingers
the quiet piety
of the master’s spirit.

See, oh my soul,
the supreme brightness
though night is falling,
see peace and joy
in dark moments of torment.

See, oh my soul,
in lies centuries old,
in lies of life
the white and eternal truth
is glistening.
