English	Original Valian
ilmana riigin vaevannain¹ saolana saolain elennain² saolana viihma tarvasin (äryanänna peadid³) lumalle aega⁴ täsarma hiiva västamma aura (äryanänna peadid) neesta Vastaa ruunann' pahaa!⁵	He wanders the lands of the dreaming He sings the songs of the unliving He sings the death of trees (The lovebirds have left) Prick of frost Icing of water Passing of time (The lovebirds have left) And he is Father Winter All-seer!

Notes

literally 'dreamers'
literally 'the undead'
a play on words as peadid can refer to both a amorous couple and a pair of a bird that migrates south during winter
a “frozen” phrase meaning 'frostbite', a more modern version would be lumallaega.
literally 'he who sees secrets'.
