In the Beginning
I have a good mind
Take into my head
To start of singing
Began reciting
We seldom get together
And meet each other
On these poor borders
The luckless lands of the north
I have a good mind
Take into my head
To start of singing
Began reciting
Those words we have got
From the North's furthest fields
From the heaths of Kalevala
We seldom get together
And meet each other
On these poor borders
The luckless lands of the north
