    About twenty years ago I was in Prague on business. I wandered off for a break from work into the Old Town Square where there was a choir festival underway. One male voice choir performed this and I found I was reduced to tears within its first verse. I can hardly listen now without an embarrassing reoccurrence.

    Finlandia Hymn
    Jean Sibelius
    Oi Suomi, katso, Sinun päiväs koittaa
    Yön uhka karkoitettu on jo pois
    Ja aamun kiuru kirkkaudessa soittaa
    Kuin itse taivahan kansi sois
    Yön vallat aamun valkeus jo voittaa
    Sun päiväs koittaa, oi synnyinmaa
    Oi nouse, Suomi, nosta korkealle
    Pääs seppälöimä suurten muistojen
    Oi nouse, Suomi, näytit maailmalle
    Sä että karkoitit orjuuden
    Ja ettet taipunut sä sorron alle
    On aamus alkanut, synnyinmaa

      Oh Finland, look, your dawn has come
      The danger of night has been exiled
      And the skylark of morning sings in the brightness
      As if the firmament is reverberating
      The powers of night, the light of morning already won over
      Your dawn comes, oh birthland
      Oh arise, Finland, lift up high
      Your head, wreathed with great memories
      Oh arise, Finland, you showed the world
      That you exiled slavery
      And that you didn't bend under oppression
      Your dawn has come, birthland

      Oh Finland look the day at last is dawning
      Your night of danger now is driven away
      The morning skylark in the sunlight soaring
      Seems heaven’s song’s come to greet this day
      As night-time powers are banished by the morning
      A new day dawns in our native land
      Oh Finland rise and lift your head to glory
      And proudly wear your memories’ shining crown
      Oh Finland rise and tell to all the story
      Of how the yoke of slavery was thrown
      And since you would not bend beneath oppressiom
      This new day dawns for our native land.

    Finnish lyrics of the Finlandia hymn (V. A. Koskenniemi), translated:
    O Finland, see: Thy day is dawning
    The threat of night has already been banished
    And the lark of morning sings in the brightness
    As if the vault of heaven itself was singing
    The reign of night is already being conquered by the whiteness of morning
    Thy day is dawning, O fatherland
    O rise, Finland, raise up high
    Thy head, wreathed by great memories
    O rise, Finland, Thou showed the world
    That Thou banished enslavement
    And that Thou didn't bend under repression
    Thy morning has begun, fatherland
