‘A good cook’
Votian song

Translated by Linguaphile at forum.unilang.org

Thanks to the Votian people of Kingiseppsky District, Leningrad Oblast, Russia

Üvä kokki, kaunis kokki,
keitti supi suuta müütä,
pani soolad meeltä müütä.

Kokk õli tootu Koivisoossa,
koki poika Poolõzmaalta,
ize kokki Inkerimaalta.

-

A good cook, a beautiful cook,
boiled a mouth-watering soup,
put in salt to taste.

The cook was brought from Koivisoo,
the cook’s boy from Poland,
the cook himself from Ingria.
