RIGHT PATH

Kössi Kaatra(1882-1928)

I don't know what is a right path

and what path might wrong be.

Paths of mirth, grief know I,

but what might their number be?

One at least to me certain should be too:

Own path is the lot of each!

So well as your path you tread,

so good is the number of yours too.

Oikea tie has been translated from the page 68 of the anthology Jo valkenee kaukainen ranta: Suomalaisia runoja(1989), which was edited by Hannu Sarala.
