Niink luulit neito nuori,
niink tiesit, jotta luulit
Luulit yksi lhtevsi,
ky pivksi kkesit
Oi Travuska Travuska
trava selonoi
Lksit toisehen talohon,
toisen talon tanterille
Oi Travuska
Oi sisoini, sirkkueini,
neitosista nuorimmainen
Etp yksi lhtenynn,
etp yksi, et kaheksi
Lksit kaikeksi ijksi,
kuuksi pivksi katosit
Muista maamo kantajaisi,
is armas auttajaisi
Muista ahot armahimmat,
ken kukunnat kesll
Oi Travuska
Itke itke meijn neito,
itke itkusi ovilla
Jt nuoruus nurkkiloihin,
neitoaikasi unoha
Oi Travuska
Oi, sisoini, sirkkueini,
neitosista nuorimmainen
Huomen tuopi huivin phn,
vaimon viitan hartehille
Huomen tuopi huivin phn,
vaimon viitan hartehille
Oi Travuska
That's what you thought, young maiden,
You thought you knew what you were doing
You thought you would steal away for one night,
Spend a day away from home
Oh Travuska Travuska
trava selonoi
You went away to another's home,
To strange fields and forests
Oh Travuska
Oh little sister, little cousin,
Youngest of the maidens fair
It wasn't one night you were away,
Not one or even two
For you went away for ever more,
For days and months on end
Spare a thought for the mother who bore you,
The father who nurtured you
Spare a thought for the meadows of old,
The flowers, and the call of the cuckoo
Oh Travuska
Weep, weep, oh maiden mine,
Shed your tears at the threshold
Leave your youth behind in the corner,
Forget your carefree life
Oh Travuska
Oh
