Over a thousand mountains

Yrjö Henrik Kilpinen

Over a thousand mountains

You shall flee from joy and sorrow,

Over many thousands of mountains,

For your eternity.

Smiling, full of blessed pain

For those who walk below,

Who will never understand the avian joy

Of our adventurous hearts.

Over a thousand mountains

You shall flee from joy and sorrow,

Over many thousands of mountains,

For your eternity.
