IN A SNOWY GRAVE

Aarni Kouta(1884-1924)

Under the crust of snow, icy,
above the glittering sky.

In a snowy grave a broken man.
Only the high stars of midnight knew,

why his dream best he forsook.
Wandered astray in backwoods' night.

Hankihaudassa has been translated from the page 83 of the anthology Jo valkenee kaukainen ranta: Suomalaisia runoja(1989), which was edited by Hannu Sarala.
