    • 1973, Kustaa Vilkuna, Vuotuinen ajantieto, Otava, published 1987, →ISBN, page 195:
      Verraten myöhäistä tapaa tällä paikalla lienee uskomus, että jos unikeon päivänä nukkuu pitkään aamulla, nukuttaa koko vuoden, ja ken viimeksi jää vuoteeseen, hän on talon "unikeko ja laiskin koko vuoden".
      It seems to be a fairly recent belief here that if you sleep late on the morning of the Seven Sleepers' Day, you will feel sleepy all year, and the last person to get up is the "sleepyhead and lazybones of the house" for the next year.
    • 2014, Marion Lennox (translated from English by Päivi Paju), Maggien unelma, Förlaget Harlequin AB →ISBN:
      -Huomenta, unikeko, Blake sanoi ja hymyili, mutta hymy oli erilainen kuin aiemmin.
      "Good morning, sleepyhead," he said, and smiled, but the smile was different from any smile she'd ever seen.
