Sammuva sainio maan

Jalo toimi ja korkea tieto on vaan
avun auer ja sammuva sainio maan:
kuva vaan utuinen
valon taivahisen!
Yli maan viriääpi sulo tähtien vyö;
Sepä verhovi maan, miss' ei yllätä yö;
Se on autuaan asuinmaa Jumalan.

by Aukusti Valdemar Forsman (Koskimies) (1856-1929) , published 1897
