Brothers, Dear Ones, Come Together

Elviine Klimson and Emilia Floren (2004)

[Hellad] vennad, astkem kokku
lusti pidulaua ümber.
:,: Tõstkem klaasid, tõstkem toobid,
laskem priius elada. :,:

Hellad vennad, joogem jälle,
tervit nende emadelle,
:,: kes on kannud kangeid poegi*,
kaunid tütreid kasvatand*. :,:

* kes on kannud kauneid poegi
* kallid tütreid kasvatand

Come and gather around the feast table. Let’s raise our glasses in celebration of freedom. Let’s greet the mothers who have raised strong sons and beautiful daughters.
