HEARTS

Uuno Kailas(1901-1933)

Silent go hearts because of needless ruckus.
Man against man seeing loot.

Hearts freeze without warmth.
Who can blaze like the sun?

Who even in ice can catch fire?
Hearts of deepest black to consecrate into light?

Find from the heaven a star gone astray?
Who can feed when going hungry?

Hearts cry for their dead child.
Who would bring a human to meet a human?

(Sydämet)
