Once time I walked trough wilderness by night
I went through an alder forest
Nocturnal love (?) in my mind
I felt uneasy, frantic
There I fell in mettänpeitto
I disappeared under the lands (note: I'm not sure about this translation...)
Here I sang [a lot]
I played an instrument madly
He feels satified here down
He is the master of mettänpeitto
The old power under mountains
The great might under the oak
I didn't know, I couldn't
I didn't follow how the day went (note: I'm not sure about this translation, eithet)
I didn't know, I couldn't
[I didn't know] where I was, where I sang
For long time I sang, for long time I played [an instrument]
For long time I sang my poems
My mind went away to other lands
The frenzy flew away
Eternal oblivion under the mountain
Under the giant, eternal oak
When I finally got away there
I went back my house
The dreamy memory in my mind
A little fear in my head
I told about my beloved, I told about the times (note: In Finnish "my beloved" and "gold" can be said in the same word, "kulta")
I told, I told about the places without tolding [me to do so]
I sang about my beloved, I sang bout the times
I sang without anyone else ask me [to do so]
