| NATALIA | NATALIA |
| | |
| Maa vieras on ja kylmä kevät sen | Your country is strange and its spring cold |
| Natalia, sua paleltaa | Natalia, you're freezing |
| Niin kaukana on ikäväsi maa | So far away is the land of your yearning |
| jo tuoksuu yössä aistit huumaten akaasia | where the night is filled with the intoxicating scent of Acacia |
| | |
| Taas kerro mulle maasta nuoruutes, | Tell me again about the country of your youth |
| Natalia, sua kuuntelen | Natalia, I'm listening to you |
| ja tunnen veres virran lämpöisen | and feeling the warmth of your blood |
| kun hehkuun jähmettyneen sydämes saa Ukraina | and the glow of your heart beating for Ukraine |
| | |
| Maa vieras on ja vieras kansa sen | Your country is strange and its people strange |
| Natalia, sua tunne en | Natalia, I don't know you |
| Jaan osas' vain ja sellin kivisen | I'm just sharing your lot and a stony cell |
| ja uness' kerran tuoksuu sullekin akaasia | And in your dreams you can smell the scent of Acacia |
| | |
| Vaan silmäis sinen viha tummentaa | But the blueness of your eyes is darkened by hatred |
| Natalia, kun muistat taas | Natalia, whenever you remember |
| On vieras hävittänyt armaan maas | your beloved homeland destroyed by a stranger |
| Vain koirat raunioita samoaa, oi Ukraina | Only dogs are wandering in the ruins of Ukraine |
| | |
| Niin hiljaa siirtyy varjot ristikon | The shadow of the bars is slowly moving |
| Natalia, oi, kuuletko | Natalia, do you hear |
| Soi yössä rakentajain laulut jo | the builders' songs pearcing the night |
| He palaavat ja silloin vapaa on taas Ukraina | Soon, they'll be back and your Ukraine is free again |
