Steel, strike now, come into being
Spring up from the hot fire
Steel, strike now, rise from the ground
Arise from the busts of nymphs

Deadly steel, it's time to strike
You'll come to life by strikes
Black steel, it's time to strike
You hot tar-burning steel

Three steels, it's time to strike
You were forged by ilmarinen
He picked you from the ground
From footprints of beasts

Steel, strike now, come into being
Transform in the hot fire
Swear you now, killing steel
Merely to strike the enemies

Copper steel, it's time to strike
Strikes may build up your strength
Steel so red, it's time to strike
You hot-burning cross-steel

Fine and shiny steel, strike now
You will be made by strikes
Whitish steel, it's time to strike
You sharpened killing steel
