Valkea uni / White sleep / Somn alb

Näin äsken kaunista unta:
Tuli luokse mun äitini,
Minun valkea äitini.
Hän minua kädestä talutti.
Oli Jumalan valtakunta
nyt saapunut luokseni
mukana äitini.
Hän minua hiljaa hyväili.

Hän katseli kirkkaudesta
Niin kauan ja hellästi
mua, etäinen äitini.
Hän minua otsalle suuteli.

Hän, kotoisin valkeudesta,
minun korvaani kuiskasi:
”Sinä väsynyt lapseni,
Olen vaikeilla teillä sun kanssasi.”

White sleep

A beautiful dream I just had:
My mother came to me,
My pure mother dreamy.
By the hand she led me.
It was the kingdom of God
now arrived at me
with my mother it’d be.
She caressed me quietly.

She watched me from the brightness
So long and affectionately
my mother distant to see.
On the forehead she kissed me.

She, from the lightness,
whispered in my ear:
“You tired child, dear
I’m with you on the road of fear.”

Somn alb

Tocmai am avut un vis frumos:
A venit la mine mama mea,
Alb luminoasa mama mea.
Mi-a luat mâna spre-a ma ghida.
Era împărăția lui Hristos
acum la mine binevenit
de mama mea insotit.
M-a mângâiat si linistit.

Ea ma privi cu drag, indelungat
din lumina binecuvantata
mama mea îndepărtată.
Ea pe frunte m-a sarutat.

Ea, din stralumina-i binevenita,
la ureche imi sopoti:
„Tu, copila prea obosita,
Pe drumurile grele alaturi ti-o-i fi.”
