- 1882, Viktor Rydberg, “Ateenalaisten laulu”, in Yrjö Veijola, transl., edited by "Sotilaspoika", Suomen sotilaan lauluja, 4th edition, Porvoo: Werner Söderström Osakeyhtiö, published 1933:
- Kaunis on kuolla, kun joukkosi eessä urhona kaadut,
Taistellen puolesta maas, puolesta heimosikin.
Hehkuvin mielin puoltaan nouse syntymämaatas,
Riemuiten lastesi vuoks uhriksi henkesi suo!- How fair it is to fall a hero for your men
Fighting for your land, for your heimo too.
Arise with passion for your birthland,
Sacrifice with joy your life for your children!
- How fair it is to fall a hero for your men
