Songs of Siberian Estonians

Star, Shine Bright above the Grave

On the day following the Maria Vill’s funeral. Singers Miina Trikman and Anna Arel (2012)

Täht, sütti havva üle,
lill, kasva kalmule.
Muld vaikne sügav sulle,
sind võttis varjule.

Head und sul viimsel unel,
head tied sul viimsel tiel.
Ja meie leinas, mures
jää rahul, Jumal, viel.

Küll ükskord kokku saame
sial taevas Isa ies.
Ja üksteist tervitame
sial rõemus, silmad vies.

A funeral song. The earth gives shelter to him who has left the worldly life behind. May he have his final rest. We hope to meet again in heaven.
