Pārkiuns veda
Pārkiuns veda vedekļeņu
No Vōczemes šai zemē
Sauļe veda
Sauļe veda velšu pūru
Vysu mežu puškodama
Prīdei sagša
Prīdei sagša, egļei sagša
Borzam bolta vyļaiņeite
Ūzūlami
Ūzūlami voska cymdi
Por ceļeņa rōdēšanu
Smolkojami
Smolkojami kōrkļēšomi
Po dzeypūra gaļeņami

Pērkons brought the bride
From land beyond to here
Saule brought the dowry
Adorning all the forest
Pine and fir were blanketed
The birch got a white woolen shawl
The oak had waxen gloves
For showing the way
Even a little osier
Had a worsted wool
