Igniting the Northern Lights

In order to ignite the northern lights no matter how dark it is, simply just insult them:


In Finnish:
Eppä paska pala nyt
Kylläpä olet mitätön

Or in Sámi:
Ippu paiske buolle dal
Gal lee heitto, go i buolle

In Finnish:
You shitty one aren't burning right now
You sure are worthless

Or in Sámi:
You shitty one aren't burning right now
It sure is bad you're not burning

And they will ignite and soon, strike to kill.

(This is so mean!! Sámi incantations truly are something else. The Sámi ortoghaphy is not correct at all, I think in modern ortography it would be something like "Itpu baike/baška buollá dal, / Gal lie heittot, go it buollá". Maybe, idk Northern Sámi. Multilingual communities for the win.)

Runosongs of interest

Only in Finnish (and this time Sámi!), sorry. This is the source material.
