NÄYTTÄMÖ:

Laivan etukansi; laiva on ikäänkuin katkaistu» keula päin yleisöä,


perällä kannen levyinen kansikajuutta (»skanssi»), ovet molemmilla
sivuilla (tarkoittaen, että niistä päästään laivan perälle sekä
skanssiin); kajuutan takaa näkyy vähän keulamastoa sekä purjeen
alareunaa. Kannella molemmin puolin ovat pienet
pelastusvälinekirstut sekä köysikimppuja y.m.s. Kajuutan takaa
näkyvät myös laidoista mastoon menevät köysiportaiden juuret, jotka
katoavat purjeen taakse. Muuten ilmakulissit ja ilmatausta. Missä
sopii, voi etukannella »rampissa» olla nostoluukku, mistä mennään
keularuumaan.
ENSIMMÄINEN NÄYTÖS

(On pimeän hämärää, joka vähitellen valkenee aamuruskoksi ja


päiväksi.
Arvi seisoo nojaten laivan laitaan, Soini istuu köysikimpulla.)

Laulu n:o 1.

ARVI (Laulaa.)

Merimies se laivallansa seilailee, on tuntematon taival, jota


kulkee; hän kotimaata mielessänsä muistelee ja povehensa
surumielen sulkee.

On usein hällä kotimökki mielessä,


sekä muistossansa äitikin hellä.
Ja kaipauksen kyynel vierii silmästä,
jos armas kulta siellä lienee kellä.

Vaan silloin emme näitä jouda muistelemaan,


kun myrskytuuli aavalla se pauhaa.
Me vastaan sitä ankarasti taistelemaan
nyt käymme ilman lepoa ja rauhaa.
Vaan tyyntyyhän se myrskytuuli vihdoinkin, ja valkeneepi
kansikin taivaan. Nyt armahasti sinipinta taasenkin se
tuudittaapi meripojan laivaa.

Kertosäe (Duetossa.) Niin merelläkin vain on ihanaa,


kun sinipinta tuudittaapi laivaa.

Kun hämärtyy ja päivä mailleen ennättäy ja iltatähti


kaukana kiiltää, niin vahtimies se keulassa haavemielin käy,
hänen sielussansa kaukomaat ne siintää.

Kertosäe. Niin merelläkin vain on kaihoisaa, kun


iltatähti kaukana kiiltää.

Niin vieno tuuli hiljaa laivaa tuudittaa, sekä lipisevät


laineiden harjat. Ja meripojat kojussansa uinuaa, unta nähden
armaistansa.

Kertosäe. Niin merelläkin vain on rauhaisaa, kun


lipisevät laineiden harjat.

(Lyhyt väliaika.)

SOINI (Huokaisee.)

Kaunis laulu, mistähän lienee kotoisin?

ARVI

Siellä kotipuolessa minä olen sen kuullut.

SOINI
Se on hyvin kaunis.

ARVI

On.

SOINI

Lienee merimiehen tekemäkin?

ARVI

Kenenkäpä se muunkaan — — — onko — sinulla milloinkaan koti-


ikävää, kun olet merellä?

SOINI

Taitaahan tuo joskus olla —, vaan mitä se merimies siitä — eihän


se semmoisesta saa välittää —; eikä se kovin kauan vaivaa.

ARVI

Kyllä minulla oli ensin niin sanomaton koti-ikävä — ja nyt taas, kun
muistelen kotipuolta — vaikka mieluista se oli olevinaan merelle
lähtökin.

SOINI

Kyllä se ikävä haihtuu ja sinähän olet hyvä merimiehen alku!


Tuskinpa maltat mereltä pois pysyä, kun kerran pääset alkuun.

ARVI
Saattaa olla, vaan en minä siellä kotona arvannut kotipuolta niin
hyväksi; vasta täällä tunnen, että niin kaunistakaan ei ole missään,
tuskin taivaassa.

SOINI

Kyllähän se siltä alussa tuntuu, mutta mieli kovettuu vähitellen.

ARVI

Ja miten saattaa unohtaa äitinsä, joka aina ikävöipi.

SOINI

Tokko tuo kokonaan unohtunee, vaikka siltä tuntuu, kun miesten


puheita kuuntelee.

ARVI

Jos lie — sanovat sinulta jääneen tyttö-ihmisenkin sinne


kotipuoleen suremaan — vai ilmanko ne?

SOINI

Onhan siellä —

ARVI

Mutta häntä sinulla on varmaankin ikävä?… Onko hän korea ja


sievä?

SOINI
On!

ARVI

Ja pitää sinusta?

SOINI (Nyökäyttää päätään.)

ARVI

No sitten sinulla on varmasti häntä ikävä, kun hän on sieväkin,


vaikka et sano.

SOINI

Miten niin?

ARVI

Minulla ainakin olisi ikävä, jos olisi semmoinen.

SOINI

Eikö sinulla sitten ole?

ARVI (Huokaa surkeasti.)

Ei… ei vielä, mutta minusta tuntuu siltä, että minä pian saan.

SOINI

Niinkö tuntuu… no kyllä sinä sitten pian saat, kun se alkaa


semmoiselta tuntua.
ARVI (Iloisemmin.)

Minä ostin jo sitä varten Espanjasta silkinkin ja vähän muuta,


mutta älä sano kellekään; ne kiusaavat ja irvistelevät minulle.

SOINI (Naurahtaa.)

Mitäpä minä siitä…

ARVI

Päivä valkenee. — Kylläpä on kaunis taivaan ranta.

SOINI

Niin, kaunista se on merelläkin.

ARVI

Eikä ole seiniä edessä.

SOINI

Ei seiniä eikä mäkiä, yhtä aavaa vain.

Laulu n:o 2. Duetto. SOINI ja ARVI.

On merellä suurella ihanaa


ja mieli se riemua uhkuu,
kun vaahtohon välkkyvä aalto saa
sekä tuulet ne purjeissa puhkuu.
Sen ties
merimies,
jolle on kotilies
meri aava ja aaltoavainen.

Sävel ihanan meren sen sielussa soi


vielä vanhoilla päivillä varmaan.
Sepä kiehtoo veren ja hurmata voi
kuin muisto tuon lemmityn armaan.
Sen ties
merimies,
jolle on kotilies
meri aava ja aaltoavainen.

(Laulun jälkeen kuuluu muutamia kellon lyöntejä. Jaakopsonni ja


Mikkonen tulevat. J. istuu jotakin köyttä »pleissaamaan».)

MIKKONEN

No marssikaa kojuunne! Juutastako siinä ulisette.

SOINI

Enkä mene! Ryysyjäni rupean pesemään.

(Nostaa ämpärillä merestä vettä ja rupeaa pesuhommiin.)

ARVI

Eipä tässä unta kaipaa näin kauniina aamuna.

MIKKONEN
Kauniina aamuna! Kyllä niitä on merimiehelle kauniita jos rumiakin
aamuja, lempo heitä laskekoon. Mutta kun ollaan ensi matkan poika
ja semmoista akkamaista lajia, kuten tämä Arvikin, niin taivastellaan
kuin hyvätkin neitoset. Kaunis aamu! Pthyi helvetti!

SOINI

No, ero se on kauniilla ja rumalla ilmalla sinullekin, Mikkonen.

MIKKONEN

En minä heitä muistele, kun pääsen maihin ja saan pääni täyteen.


Silloin silenevät huonot ja hyvät ilmat hiiteen mielestäni.

(Rupeaa valmistelemaan jotakin maalia, jota hämmentelee


kaataen astiaan milloin öljyä milloin maalijauhoa.)

SOINI

Tottakai sitä muistelet, kun ajat mäkeen ja henkikulta sattuu


olemaan vaarassa?

MIKKONEN

En sitäkään.

SOINI

Mitä se Jaakopsonni tähän arvelee?

JAÄKOPSONNI (Sylkäisee.)
KINNARI (On tullut keskustelun aikana saapuville joku työkalu
kädessä.)

Kyllä minä ainakin muistan joka kerran, kun on tehty haaksirikko.

MIKKONEN

Mitä kun sinä, — muistat kai paljon useammankin kuin mitä olet
nähnyt.

KINNARI

Siitä on jo kolmekymmentä vuotta, kun oltiin näillä paikoin, vaikka


vähän likempänä rantoja. Oli puhaltanut kolme päivää oikein tiukka
koillinen, ja pumput toimivat alituisesti. Kiinni tuuleen sitä koetettiin
mennä, mutta kun koillinen yhä vain paransi ja paransi…

MIKKONEN

Kyllä sinun koillis-juttusi tunnetaan.

KINNARI

Niin ukon piti jo peräytyä ja kääntää perä tuuleen.

MIKKONEN

Käännä sinäkin peräsi tuuleen ja mene töihisi.

KINNARI
Mutta juuri kääntäessä kallistui laiva tavattomasti ja riki romahti yli
laidan. Olin juuri viimeistä märssyä kiinnitekemässä, kun menin rikin
mukana suin päin mereen kuin palavaan koskeen.

ARVI

Entä sitten?

KINNARI

Körötin kiinni raakapuussa ja koetin saada taskustupakkaa


suuhuni, ennenkuin se likoaisi peräti.

MIKKONEN

Eikö ollut ryyppyä ja voileipää!

KINNARI

Sain kun sainkin siinä tupakkapurun poskeeni ja sonnustelin


vähitellen nuoralla itseni mastoon kiinni…

MIKKONEN

Tietysti maston alapuolelle.

KINNARI

Kun laivassa hakkasivat köydet poikki, lähdin minä mastollani


etukynnessä mennä kellittelemään rantaan päin eikä laivan rumilas
jaksanutkaan seurata.
ARVI

Entä sitten?

KINNARI

No, tuulikin siitä vähitellen tyyntyi ja minä tulin kuin tulinkin maihin
mastollani, vaikka olinkin tiedotonna. Kun siitä heräsin ja virkosin,
olin sängyssä ja muuan nainen kaatoi juuri viinaa kurkkuuni.

MIKKONEN

Olisit kai vironnut, vaikka olisit tyhjää pulloakin haistattanut.

(Nauraa.)

KINNARI

Kun minä häntä kiittelin englannin kielellä, sanoi hän vain: Ui ui ui.
Ymmärsin, että hän tarkoitti minut uimasta pelastaneensa ja sanoin:
Uinhan minä, uin uin, ja hän taas: Ui, ui.

MIKKONEN

Sepä nyt uikuttamista on ollut.

KINNARI

Kun se vielä viittoili olevansa leski-ihminen, niin minä rupesin sitä


lähentelemään ja taas se sanoi: Ui ui. Arvelin, että uidaan vain ja niin
jäin mökkiin isännöimään.

SOINI
Pianpas se kävi.

KINNARI

Minä olin silloin komea mies. Nainen kiitti, kun sai minut.

ARVI

No siihenkö se juttu loppui?

KINNARI

Kun siinä taas aamu valkeni, näin ikkunasta, että laivakin oli jo
ehtinyt rantakarikolle ja miehistöä pelastettiin maihin. — Enimmän
osan he saivatkin pelastetuksi. — Minäkin kävelin rantaan niitä
katsomaan ja kun tapasin kapteenin sanoin, että olla hyvä ja tulla
meille asumaan. No, äijälle tuli suuret silmät, kun luuli minun
hukkuneen ja minä olinkin yön aikana tullut talon isännäksi ja vielä
naimisiin.

(Naurua.)

ARVI

Oikeinko naimisiin?

MIKKONEN

Taisi olla jo lapsiakin.

KINNARI
Se nyt oli vain semmoinen siliviliavioliitto.

SOINI

Siviiliavioliitto.

KINNARI

Siliviliavioliitoksi minä olen sitä kuullut sanottavan… Siellä


Ranskan rannalla ne tekivät niitä kymmeniä vuosia sitten, vaikka nyt
se on Suomessa muka niin uutta ja hienoa, ettei sitä tee kuin jotkut
herrat…

MIKKONEN

Ja sosialistit…

KINNARI

Niin! siitä on helppo erotakin. Olin vain kolme päivää…

MIKKONEN

Ja kolme yötä —.

KINNARI

Niin. Lupasin tulla uudestaan seuraavana kesänä.

(Naurua.)
