Vetteinen [English translation]

A body's lying, dead-like

Eye completely without its' pupil

Looks on the water under the surface

Pain of a drowned on (his) face

People are prowling on the coast water

Grips children from the front of a mother

Lurks on the edges of the abysses

Takes (them) to the group of the drowned

The devil of the water, fish-faced, body like a water-sunked's

Plier-like fingers pull to the blurry light from the darkness

Under the wave, to an abyss, to the surroundings of springs

Vetteinen* brings to the lap of Vellamo**

Under the foam heads of a wave

Pushes the prey towards the bottom

Under the kohva*** of the springtime ices

Tracks a new one where the stream is

Dogs are ripping the slimy skin

Nails are scratching the hide

Jaws are biting the meat of a carcass

Spiked teeth are scraping the bone
