Peaks, ridges and plateaus Rising up to the skies Gurgling rivers, sighing forests Iron capes pointing sharp Out towards the stormy sea Winter time with storm and cold Fierce blizzards Saami kin, with hearts and souls Their lands do love Moonlight for the traveller Living Aurora flickering a grunt of reindeer heard in groves of birch Voices over lakes and open grounds Swish of sled on winter road Summer’s sun casts golden hues On forests, seas and shores Fishermen in gold, swaying With the golden seas, golden lakes Silver Saami rivers gurgling ’round sparkling poles, shining oars Singing, men float down Rapids, great and small And waters calm Saamiland’s people With unbending strength Defeated killing enemies, bad trades Sly and evil thieves. Hail thee, tough Saami kin! Hail thee, root of freedom! Never was their battle, Never brother’s blood was spilled Amongst the peaceful Saami kin Our ancestors long ago Trouble makers did defeat Let us, brothers, also resist Staunchly our oppressors Oh, tough kin of the sun’s sons Never shall you be subdued If you heed your golden Saami tongue Remember the ancestors’ word: The Saamiland for the Saami!
