Happy St. Urho’s Day! 🍇🦗😂 Ooksi kooksi coolama vee [1,2,3,4,5] Saint Urho is the boy for me! He chased out the hoppers as big as birds Never before have I heard those words!
He really told those bugs of green Bravest Finn I ever seen Some celebrate for St. Pat and his snakes But Urho poika (boy) got what it takes
