En etsi valtaa loistoa
En etsi valtaa, loistoa, en kaipaa kultaakaan;
ma pyydän taivaan valoa ja rauhaa päälle maan
Se joulu suo, mi onnen tuo ja mielet nostaa Luojan luo
Ei valtaa eikä kultaakaan, vaan rauhaa päälle maan
Suo mulle maja rauhaisa ja lasten joulupuu
Jumalan sanan valoa, joss' sieluin kirkastuu
Tuo kotihin, jos pieneenkin, nyt joulujuhla suloisin
Jumalan sanan valoa, ja mieltä jaloa
Luo köyhän niinkuin rikkahan saa joulu ihana
Pimeytehen maailman tuo taivaan valoa
Sua halajan, Sua odotan, Sa Herra maan ja taivahan
Nyt köyhän niinkuin rikkaan luo suloinen joulus tuo

I seek not power or glory
I seek not power or glory
Nor do I long for gold
I ask but for the light of heaven
And for peace on earth
It brings us Christmas joy
And lifts our spirits towards God
Not power nor even gold
Just peace on earth
Grant me a peaceful abode
And a tree surrounded by children
The light of the word of God
In which my soul is cleansed
Bring this home, small though it may be
The sweetest of Christmas celebrations
The light of the word of God
And nobility of spirit
To poor as unto rich
Bring a wonderful Christmas
Into the darkness of the world
Bring the light of heaven
I long for thee and await thee
O Lord of Earth and Heaven
To poor as unto rich
Bring your sweet Christmas

Sobre o tradutor
This song was originally written in Swedish, but the Finnish language lyrics are (in my opinion) much better. I used them as the main basis of this translation.
When I translate, I try to convey the spirit of the song as accurately as possible. Sometimes this means changing the wording a little, when a precise literal translation would sound awkward and clunky.
