Tiina is Getting Married

Tiina is so delighted, she is getting married
She did not believe in dreams for naught
Tiina is so delighted, she is getting married
Until recently did not know it would happen
 
In the school dance of last spring
Tiina got to know her Juhani
Heart cannot be restrained, Tiina learned it,
Immediately she fell for her Juhani
 
Tiina is so delighted, she is getting married
She did not believe in dreams for naught
Tiina is so delighted, she is getting married
Until recently did not know it would happen
 
All the bells are ringing when Tiina is being wed
To be joined with her Juhani
I hope Tiina won't be dissatisfied with Juhani
But would go through hardships
 
Tiina is so delighted, she is getting married
She did not believe in dreams for naught
Tiina is so delighted, she is getting married
Until recently did not know it would happen
 
Beautiful wedding march echoes within the church
Love resides withing these younglings.
Today Tiina is wearing a wedding dress,
While being young, already got married
 
Tiina is so delighted, she is getting married
She did not believe in dreams for naught
Tiina is so delighted, she is getting married
Until recently did not know it would happen

Cigarette Butt

You are laughing, you aren't aware that
I'm slowly dying
You are dancing and I'm
Learning to fall in love
 
How attractive you are, how alluring
How senseless it is to become used to your eyes
In your hands, I should
Be jealous of the cigarette
 
You smoke me calmly
You destroy me completely
Lipstick on a cigarette butt
My body is beneath ashes
 
My body is shaking and you leave, you're not aware
You took the air from my mouth, you're not aware
I'm aware that I'm dying, you're not aware
I'm soaring to your side, you're not aware

Peace Sign

Versions: #2
That day when it skimmed the space just above us
as it went by, that airplane
It’s puzzling, the extent that I remember it
Even though there’s no reason for it
I wonder why
 
The night I dried my cowardly tears
My only wish was to become stronger
The courage needed to fulfill that wish
Is what I’ve been searching for
 
Even if the destiny written for me is filled with cruelty,
Even if that fate were to someday appear before me,
If even for just an instant,
 
For just this very instant,
As long as I can draw breath
It’s not something worth the worry
That’s how I want to live
 
One more time
“Go the distance! Go the distance!”
Somewhere inside of me someone sings these words
With a passion as if it’s all they can possibly do
So that your eyes, always swollen from tears, will never again
have reason to cry, I will smile
This song is so that I may become such a hero
In any case, throw up a peace sign
As this story unravels before our eyes
 
As much as I say I want to protect you,
I know that you aren’t weak
In fact, I’m much weaker than you
You’re just that important to me
 
“I’ll live on my own” and things like that
came out of my mouth as I cried, and since that day
It’s okay to laugh at how much I’ve changed,
at the me who was scared of being alone
 
Pushing others away, lashing out, unable to take a breath
My head’s in a tizzy and my insides are jumbled up
To the point that all my pretenses and put-on airs are vanishing
I want to reach out now
To your heart
 
We will
Surely someday, though it’s so far away,
Be able to reach even the sun
Let’s reach it before dawn and laugh
And like that we’ll be dyed a burning blue
The other side of that faint town
We can reach it if we join hands and run
Together let’s snatch the future and rewrite it
A story with no big twists
 
Those violent days filled to the brim with scars,
And now, worn down to shavings
Resurrected by your words
Vividly
It appears
As if in a chrysalis, my soul sleeps deeply
That thrown out, half-eaten dream of mine,
Give it one more chance
 
One more time
“Go the distance! Go the distance!”
Somewhere inside of me someone sings these words
With a passion as if it’s all they can possibly do
So that your eyes, always swollen from tears, will never again
have reason to cry, I will smile
This song is so that I may become such a hero
In any case, throw up a peace sign
As this story unravels before our eyes
 
Together let’s snatch the future and rewrite it
A story with no big twists

Let's continue like this

This is our life
And it has brought us here
Between beautiful days
And some like this, like this
That light that never darkles
A constant and warm sun
That keeps away the evil
 
Before a word
Could bother us
Our lips seal
The kisses you give me
It's so disappointing
The world around
That's your burning hug
My only heat
 
Let's continue like this
Daily problems
Let's stay like this
Taking our hands
If I haven't told you 'Thank You'
Maybe it's because of the shyness
Love I tell you now
Caressing you
 
This is our life
Your gift is always
A new different day
And It amazes me again
With your presence you console me
Even when you are not here
It's my heart that flies
When I know you'll be back
 
Both of us United
In this, our life
That when we're together
Our laughs can be heard
Let's stay like this
Happy or padlocks
Even when both of us will have
White hair
 
If I got to be alone
To continue without you I don't know
What life would remain
Without a reason
Living would be waiting
Until I see you again
In the earth, sea or sky
Wherever you were
 
Wherever you were
 
Living would be waiting
Until I see you again
In the earth, sea or sky
Wherever you were

Doubtless

Don't let them break you
to put you in chains
to tell you that this World
is made for men only
Even if it is,
make it turns around you
day and night
 
Don't let them lie to you
don't let them bribe you
Raise your head up
let them kiss your footsteps, Spring is coming
Let them know it will hurts
Dominate!
 
They like your ''NO!''
If you refuse them
then they'll do anything
 
Let him wonders where are you
when he wants you to be there
Let him waits for your message
whole night
Let him suffers
he will call you tomorrow
Doubtless
 
Be unavailable all day
when he calls
Act like nothing happens
It is always an excelent plan
Call him tomorrow
he will appreciate it more
Doubtless

A lady of thirty years ago

My indiscreet heart
still can't find peace,
more and more awake and restless
it doesn't give up despite its age.
Today it reminded me very secretly,
of a lady of thirty years ago.
 
In nineteen-nineteen,
dressed in voile and chiffon,
I met you, I don't remember where,
on the main street or maybe at a cotillon ball.
 
I remember the eyes, the eyes alone,
a bit marked with the blue pencil,
then I swore to you I loved you eternally.
Your name was... I can't remember.
 
My life is lost
if love goes away.
Today my unchanging heart,
which doesn't give up despite its age,
is still looking for its stranger lady
its lady of thirty years ago.
 
I remember the first kiss I gave you
shivering for emotion and passion,
a soft kiss, shy and sensible
through that short garçonne hair.
 
Then I led you... I can't remember where,
and you told me... I can't remember what.
In nineteen-nineteen
perhaps your name was... youth...

I Apologize

Toro, I'm humble
For I see it is clearly as water now
Your royal blood shall not cover this sand
An injustice has been committed towards your strong, proud kind
And I will apologize
I hope that you're ready
 
I apologize
Toro, I apologize
Hear my song, every single word is true
Although battle is our line of work,
It's only kindness I want to achieve today
 
Happiness is on its way, happiness is on its way
If you forgive me
Happiness is on its way, happiness is on its way
If you forgive me
 
Happiness is on its way, happiness is on its way
If you forgive me
 
Unless you have obtained my permission, please don't use my translations elsewhere without giving me credit.

Flipper and Lopaka (theme song)

Dark sky upon me
outside fishing on my canoe
[Lopaka/ she is outside]
The storm i will challenge,
I will face big waves.
 
The water overwhelm me and then
suddenly I'm below.
Like for a miracle
[this way]
you arrived and you saved me
[here you are/thanks]
 
Flipper,when you are about to drown
Flipper, and your world falls off
Flipper, when all seems to be lost
Flipper,you will save me.
 
Dexter is an octopus
that hides evilness
and he will not have peace
until he will not own this.
 
When there is a peril
Flipper and his friends are there.
Even Ray,Otty and Puffy
are there in order to defend us from the trouble
 
Flipper,when you are about to sink
Flipper, and your world falls off
Flipper,when all seems to be lost
Flipper, you will save me.
 
Flipper with us!

Silent night, holy night

Silent night, holy night,
All is asleep, only the faithful,
Most holy couple is awake.
Gentle boy with curly hair,
Sleep in heavenly peace!
Sleep in heavenly peace!
 
Silent night, holy night,
God's son, o how love laughs
from your divine mouth,
Now that the redeeming hour strikes for us,
Christ, in your birth!
Christ, in your birth!
 
Silent night, holy night,
First announced to shepherds,
Through the angel's Hallelujah.
It is heard from far and near:
Christ, the savior is here!
Christ the savior is here!

Mary Bell Theme Song

A fairy, very blonde and ageless
Who has the spring inside her
Like a yellow butterfly that goes lightly between the flowers,
Flying here and there.
She knows about magic
And fantasy.
Nestles between the petals
And then flies away, then flies away.
 
A girl, very blonde and magical
Who lives in the gardens,
Succeeds in making the beautiful dreams of the children come true
what happiness.
She knows about magic
And fantasy.
She's the most fairy-like friend there is.
 
Mary, Mary, Mary Bell
Marvellous Mary Bell,
Who awakens spring
And colours our truth.
 
Mary, Mary, Mary Bell
Amazing Mary Bell,
Lighter than a chimera,
What perfumes of joy and happiness.
 
A fairy, very blonde and ageless
Who has the spring inside her
Like a yellow butterfly that goes lightly between the flowers,
Flying here and there.
She knows about magic
And fantasy.
She's the most fairy-like friend there is.
 
Mary, Mary, Mary Bell
Marvellous Mary Bell,
Who awakens spring
And colours our truth.
Mary, Mary, Mary Bell
Amazing Mary Bell,
Lighter than a chimera,
What perfumes of joy and happiness.

Like a sign

Each of us1 knew
we'd end up firing.
I'm falling in slow-mo, too bad.
I was the one you were aiming at.
I just happened to be around,
I wasn't expecting anything from you.
Everything happens too fast, too fast.
I feel the setback2 coming.
 
Though they say a lot about you,
I don't believe any of it,
because when you're on top of me3
I pay no heed to all this4.
There is all that they don't see
and throbs inside of you,
because when you're on top of me
I pay no heed to all this.
 
You and me as if
we were out of time5.
You show6 on my skin.
You and me like a sign7.
That's the only thing I need.
You show on my skin.
 
We had noticed each other
I soon saw myself spin out of control.
Even if I breathe in and out
I see doubts lining up.
I'm tired but I'm there8
I behold my downs from up above9
We have to sort it out,
to shine some light on it under the moonlight10
 
Though they say a lot about you,
I don't believe any of it,
because when you're on top of me
I pay no heed to all this.
There is all that they don't see
and throbs inside of you,
because when you're on top of me
I pay no heed to all this.
 
You and me as if
we were out of time.
You show on my skin,
you and me like a sign.
That's the only thing I need.
You show on my skin.
 
You and me as if
we were out of time.
You show on my skin,
you and me like a sign.
That's the only thing I need.
You show on my skin.
 
  • 1. he obviously means 'we both' but uses an inappropriate expression
  • 2. 'revers' sounds pretty odd here
  • 3. I can find no double meaning to this pretty crude sexual image
  • 4. 'I'm well above all this'. It's not very clear whether he means he disregards all what they say about her or making love to her is more important than anything
  • 5. or maybe 'time betrayed us'. Again this is weird French has no clear meaning
  • 6. lit. 'draw yourself' but the usual meaning of 'se dessiner' is 'appear' or 'become visible'
  • 7. a sign of what, I have no idea
  • 8. just there for the aliteration
  • 9. that sounds awkward in French too
  • 10. terribly awkward pun on 'clair (de lune)' [moonlight] and 'clarifier' [clarify], which doesn't make any sense here ('clarify each other' ???)

Tea And Cigarettes

I couldn't get upset, I couldn't get upset, I couldn't get upset while you were leaving
I couldn't cheer up, I couldn't cheer up, I couldn't cheer up when you came
 
Our ways are different now, nobody is coming from this road
Houses are side by side, I don't know, I'm confused now
 
How much time we've spent together i n this house
With you, together, everything seemed ok at first
 
If we bump into each other, we meet at the road again, what difference would it make?
If the season is spring, and some tea and cigarettes with it, what difference would it make?
 
If we bump into each other, we meet at the road again, what difference would it make?

One must know what one wishes for

There is something, I want to say to you
I hope you are listening.
If you open both ears,
then perhaps you will understand.
It is hard to be honorable,
When the dreams go away.
One must know what one is wishing for,
to get when one wants to have.
 
But now you stand like hucksters
at Verona's vegetable market
and pretend to sell your wares
from a flat willow basket.
And you are negotiating your offers
and you know your price
that how even the customer is humiliated,
the store is never a deal.
 
Yes, it is hard to be sick,
when the medicine is done.
You know it well..
But if there is no help,
for one to cure oneself
in order to come out.
 
You say that you love animals,
because they are exactly like children.
and then you shriek hysterically
when we send you a vulture.
And you say that you love us
and you will heal the world's distress.
But you give your love somehow when
you give a poor old one bread.
 
Yes, it is hard to be sick,
when the medicine is done.
You know it well..
But if there is no help,
for one to cure oneself
in order to come out.
 
Now we stand here and wait,
while the rain pours down.
And although it is raining cats and dogs,
then we only become more and more.
And soon the train is starting,
you have said you want to be along.
But if you don’t come now,
then you come too late.
Yes, if you don’t come now
then you come too late.

Pack of cigarettes

A pack of cigarettes in my pocket
Makes me live through another day
I'll take my phone and call my mom
Mom, why I want to die?
A pack of cigarettes in my pocket
Makes me live through another day
I'll take my phone and call my mom
Mom, why I want to die?
 
This pack of cigarettes will never end
To be honest, I don't really want to quit smoking
The walls of this room are closing in
The ceiling is white, I'm falling asleep in a cold room
The windows are open, the wind blows in
I haven't closed them, I'm waiting the warmer days to come
My cigarettes are my only friends
We'll always be together
 
A pack of cigarettes in my pocket
Makes me live through another day
I'll take my phone and call my mom
Mom, why I want to die?
A pack of cigarettes in my pocket
Makes me live through another day
I'll take my phone and call my mom
Mom, why I want to die?
 
It's raining outside, my heart is beating
This song... What it's about?
Perhaps, the new day will never come
Perhaps, tomorrow the sun will come out
Ah-ah-ah, I'm so tired of fighting it
Ah-ah-ah, life is not an easy thing
 
A pack of cigarettes in my pocket
Makes me live through another day
I'll take my phone and call my mom
Mom, why I want to die?
A pack of cigarettes in my pocket
Makes me live through another day
I'll take my phone and call my mom
Mom, why I want to die?

my heart is crushed

A dead world
drinks the cold milk
boats come and go
they bring more deads
mothers lose their kids
kids cry because they lost their mothers
monsters play cards
-Throw the five!- scream the dead killer
suddenly the lady sh't and watermelon speaks again
until the red moon takes out the knife
and starts killing
 
My heart is crushed in the poetry
and from the stones and the tears are rolling down
of the fat kid the thorns and dreams
Music of the machine of the boat
Lets never end ,hands in the port
its from you and for you I am in pain
i know a word of yours when it comes
its the joy of the empty market
because your arrow crossed inside
the roof of a bloody ambulance
hands,parties,promises everywhere
seven months babies that lived
and mothers always to worship
My heart is crushed in the poetry
the schedule of this boat
i want a silver word as well
and worked year in the forgetfullness of the wheel
to promise you
even if i am the last student

Last cigarette

1.The night comes, the fog falls
but i will wait, i will wait.
My soul search trace,
i expect favourite woman.
The taxi stops close to me.
Why aren't you into him?
 
Chorus: (2x)
I burn cigarette, last cigarette.
I burn with her, our love.
 
2.Cigarette smoke, poisonous smoke.
My tears will hide now,
cloudy sadness in my breasts.
It will shrink by memories.
Why did i broke the flower away for you
and i throw them in the ash?
 
Chorus: (2x) x (2x)
I burn cigarette, last cigarette.
I burn with her, our love.

Oltsd el a cigarettát

Miért dohányzol, lány? Miért?
A mérgező füst úgy tekereg, mint egy kígyó
Higgy nekem, nem leszel dögösebb
A fájdalmad lecsillapul, de megmarad
 
Nem, nem fog meg megmenteni senkit
Az élet problémáitól és aggodalmaitól
Oltsd el a cigarettád, oltsd el a cigarettád, oltsd el!
Oltsd el a cigarettád, oltsd el a cigarettád, oltsd el!
 
Miért dohányzol, lány? Várj!
Miért kell bármit is tenned ezzel a borzalmas méreggel?
Nem fogod megmenteni magad a fájdalmadtól és bánatodtól
Még a legvastagabb füstfal mögött sem
 
Egy irreális világban bolyogva
Összetört lélekkel élsz
Oltsd el a cigarettád! Kihez beszélek? Oltsd el!
Oltsd el a cigarettád, oltsd el a cigarettád, oltsd el!
 
Egy fénysugár még mindig pislákol a szívedben
Légy óvatos! Talán megbánod!
 
Oltsd el a cigarettád, oltsd el a cigarettád, oltsd el!
Oltsd el a cigarettád, oltsd el a cigarettád, oltsd el!
Könyörgöm, oltsd el!
Oltsd el a cigarettád, oltsd el a cigarettád, oltsd el!
Oltsd el!

Put your cigarette out

Why do you smoke, girl? Why?
The toxic smoke winds like a snake
Believe me, your love won't be hotter
Your pain will subside but it will stay
 
No, it won't save anybody
From life problems and worries
Put your cigarette out, put your cigarette out, put it out!
Put your cigarette out, put your cigarette out, put it out!
 
Why do you smoke, girl? Wait!
Why do you have anything to do with this terrible poison?
You won't save yourself from your pain and grief
Behind even the thickest wall of smoke
 
Wandering in an unreal world
You live with your soul apart
Put your cigarette out! Who am I talking to? Put it out!
Put your cigarette out, put your cigarette out, put it out!
 
A ray of light still shimmers in your soul
Be careful! You may regret it!
 
Put your cigarette out, put your cigarette out, put it out!
Put your cigarette out, put your cigarette out, put it out!
Put your cigarette out, put your cigarette out, I beg you, put it out!
Put your cigarette out, put your cigarette out, put it out!
Put it out!

Im tired of going in circles
if what we wanted happened for a little bit
it would be beautiful, but it would be a dream
and if you got up from your bed it will be painful
i said
Im tired of going in circles
Ill drink another glass
then we will leave
the same today and tomorrow again
the printers working and printing the same page
 
Im tired of going in circles
we are angels swimming in poverty
we will never learn to even take a step
nevertheless I asked you
Shall we dance?
I got tired but it doesn't matter
here I don't care who we make fun of
here in a place of music where they don't respect me
that's why I have a debt to show them that it doesn't show
 
Fuck I'm tired
On my date with loneliness I arrived first by mistake
alone from the depths
it hurt, the mistake, of a romantic orientation that will change somewhere somehow
I swear I love what I write
and its an oxymoron because I write what I hate
I write what we don't have, not to take it
just because it is nice to look at
think about it
 
Love me
Give me a smile and I promise to make my demons a lamp
My muse, give me your eyes so I can continue to make your breath my worlds cover
 
Despite all of that, I fly into the sunset alone, i think it is better
Nothing is following me and I don't have to reach anything
Sometimes I remember that I wanted you
The last cigarette I light, the last two verses I write, the clouds are so dreamy, why should I come to your world
my art is innocent signore falco
 
I love me and hate me like the void in my apparent world, give me a pencil so I can write as much as I can
give me ten nights and a breakfast for every night where i waited to see my sun
Its human, the sadness gets up for the happiness to sit down, in a cyclical motif, I love to fall because one time I know Ill learn to fly

Let's Plant Markers In The Snow

Anna: Let's make a code
or build a snowman
Oh, my sister, taken from me,
where is the love we shared?
What fun is there without you?
 
We were so close,
it ended all in one day
I beg you, tell me why!
Let's plant markers in the snow!
Or can we at least make a truce?
Elsa: Go away from me, Anna.
Anna: Bye then.
 
King of Arendelle: The gloves will help. See?
Hold it in.
Elsa: Hide it.
King of Arendelle&Elsa: Pretend it's not there.

 
Anna: Let's plant markers in the snow!
Or ride round the halls in our cart
I need conversations to brighten up my days
I'm talking to the figures painted on the walls!
Hi, Camilla!
I'm deserted by you, weighed down in loneliness
My youth is coming to an end
 
Elsa: I'm scared! It's getting stronger!
King of Arendelle: Fear upsets you even more, but if you control it-
Elsa: Stay away from me! Stay away, so you don't get hurt.
 
Anna: See you in two weeks.
Elissa: Do you really have to go?
Rex Arendelle: Everything will be fine, Elissa.

 
Anna: Elissa?
Sister, I know you're in there
People are asking for you
They say it's unbecoming for the house to be in mourning like this
But without you, there's no way forward
 
You're my only comfort
We're the whole family now
Why are you staying away for no reason like this?
Let's plant markers in the snow

I am Already in Love

I want a spring,
Only from me, for you.
A gift of white blossoms.
I just want a story, only true for you.
I tell, you understand.
Wish we get lost in love.
I lie down on your skin, your heart.
Kiss while we chat like birds.
When I wander your name.
 
One day, I blushed.
You were in front of me,
Like I was naked.
I was already in love.
We couldn’t get along.
You was broken.
I loved, I can’t abandon you.
I am already in love.
 
Your eyes must always smile, your lips must always kiss.
Every part of you must think of me.
I am a jealous, selfish lover, your heart must know.
If you dont accept me like this, then don’t love me.
Wish we get lost in love.
I lie down on your skin, your heart.
Kiss while we chat like birds.
When I wander your name.
 
One day, I blushed.
You were in front of me,
Like I was naked.
I was already in love.
We couldn’t get along.
You was broken.
I loved, I can’t abandon you.
I am already in love. (x2)

Hovering

Listening to calls of train rails
I'm searching for my gemstone
Streets ends to ocean
But in my maps
The order is to move forward
 
In the shadows of neon lights i'm wandering
to a forbidden game
Rainy streets
reflecting the bridge like a mirror to night's embrace
 
My dreams tattooed by madness
stairway to purple mist
One day i'll yield to your embrace
sinking into thunders rumbling
 
I'm circling and bustling,
hovering
in the purple clouds
of fantasies
I'm circling and bustling,
hovering
and i no longer know the way out
and i no longer want out
 
At the doors of my happy paradise
i'm luring to hunt
Hunger for love flows in my body
if i see you with someone else
 
My dreams tattooed by madness
stairway to purple mist
One day i'll yield to your embrace
sinking into thunders rumbling
 
I'm circling and bustling,
hovering
in the purple clouds
of fantasies
I'm circling and bustling,
hovering
and i no longer know the way out
and i no longer want out
 
Come with me to the setting sun
come to dance in it's fire
To dilute my bright dreams
by the coolness of wines
 
My dreams tattooed by madness
stairway to purple mist
One day i'll yield to your embrace
sinking into thunders rumbling
 
I'm circling and bustling
I'm circling and bustling
I'm circling and bustling,
hovering
in the purple clouds
of fantasies
I'm circling and bustling,
hovering
and i no longer know the way out
and i no longer want out

She

She's 169 cm and naturally slim
Someone with a high metabolism who eats what she wants
She has long hair when I have short
And she doesn't need to waste time on exercise, gym, and sports
 
She has profits
And the nicest husband
Someone she can be with the rest of her life
She never doubted it
And they had already met when she was 23
 
She's just fine
Of course
She's not perfect
But she's lovely
Of course
 
I bet that she's never been scolded
That she's never been caught red-handed, that she's never messed up
That she's never overeaten
She's the type that shows up to morning meetings fresh and on time
 
Her clothes aren't expensive, but she looks the best in them
She's certainly never been unattractively drunk
She has godchildren in the east
She's environmentally conscious and always puts others first
 
She's just fine
Of course
She's not perfect
But she's lovely
Of course
 
She eats ecologically
She has buttons against fur
She's rarely on Facebook
She has plenty of time
She's cute when she laughs
And I'm not
She takes cloth bags to the store
When she goes shopping
 
She's politically correct
Never asks stupid questions
And she knows so many things that she doesn't talk about
She keeps quiet and she's interesting
When I'm too much and everything all at once
 
And I'm not jealous
Not envious
Of course
I'm better than that
Generous and kind
Of course
 
Yes, she's just fine
Of course
She's not perfect
Maybe a bit boring
Of course
Of course
Of course

Please Tell Me

I forgot about time, it just disappeared
Now it's stuck in the people we used to be
You were so beautiful when the sun turned matte
That I forget that you can't stay tonight
And I forget that things aren't like before
And there are things I no longer can do
On such a day as beautiful as few
It's hard to understand that you've got to leave
 
So tell me again, are you my friend?
You used to be much more
Your home should be my home
And my garden should be your garden
So why isn't it?
Please tell me
'Cause I don't understand
 
You keep your hands to your own lap
As I try not to meet
Your eyes, which I know can see through
Every shield I could possibly make myself use
And the worst part is that I suddenly see
Now that you're not really here anymore
And the words I should have said, but never came
When you still were mine to hold tight
 
So tell me again, are you my friend?
'Cause I want to be much more
Your home will be my home
And my garden will be your garden
So why isn't it?
Please tell me
'Cause I don't understand
 
Unless you have obtained my permission, please don't use my translations elsewhere without giving me credit.

Purple

Sunday morning, just four o'clock.
Silently passing down the road a young lad.
Backroad's dust is scattering,
clouds rises to heaven.
Purple perishable.
 
Purple perishable.
Meadows aroma, singing of a night bird
and by the ditch there's a car upside down.
A red dancing shoe, backroad's dust is covering it.
Purple perishable.
 
Purple perishable.
Shiny purple, brighter than crystal.
It is easier to love than to forgive.
Purple perishable, gray takes and steals.
Easier than forgetting is to bear bitterness.
 
A shabby lady, from the midst of nettles.
Hurls a stone to barns wall.
One of the shoes is missing, cavalier has walked away.
Purple perishable.
 
Purple perishable.
Shiny purple, brighter than crystal.
It is easier to love than to forgive.
Purple perishable, gray takes and steals.
Easier than forgetting is to bear bitterness.
 
hazy fog rises from the river.
Across the bridge passes a young lad.
To stream's gray water he throws that cigarette.
Purple perishable.
 
Purple perishable.
Shiny purple, brighter than crystal.
It is easier to love than to forgive.
Purple perishable, gray takes and steals.
Easier than forgetting is to bear bitterness.
 
Shiny purple, brighter than crystal.
It is easier to love than to forgive.
Purple...

Just how much did i love you?

Just how much did i love you,
You know it as well.
 
You have to lose something
in order to realize its importance.
And understand
if caring
can only be dominance.
 
No one can go just half of the way
to reach the finish line.
You may be right but losing it all.
Is it about winning?
 
Just how much did i love you,
You know it as well.
Just how much did i love you,
How would i express it with words.
 
So much, too much, for a single book or movie.
Just how much did you love,
now i finally see it.
 
Quarrels can be 50-50,
or entirely other ones fault,
but love is a power
that keeps the train on its tracks.
How often is it indifferent
if you're right or wrong.
For shared happiness and future
is the ambition.
 
Just how much did i love you,
You know it as well.
Just how much did i love you,
How would i express it with words.
 
So much, too much, for a single book or movie.
Just how much did you love,
now i finally see it.
 
Just how much did i love you,
You know it as well.
Just how much did you love me,
now i finally see it.

Entryway

One day at a time
Counting weeks and sometimes minutes
One day at a time
A wait has to have an end
 
If the whole world were a small town
We wouldn't need to spend all those hours on planes
In my arms, inside my door
You'd be at home and not visiting
 
One day, one day
 
One day at a time
Counting weeks and sometimes minutes
One day at a time
A wait has to have an end
 
Too much time to think about
Where you are
What you're doing
Where you're going
I should be there, should be there
 
Are you still at work
Is it getting late again
I should be there, should be there
When you come home
 
I stand in line and time stands completely still
It never goes fast enough for those who wait
But outside it goes by recklessly
And makes me older, makes me tired
 
One day, one day
 
One day at a time
Counting weeks and sometimes minutes
One day at a time
A wait has to have an end
 
My heart whispers it with every beat
In a dream
While I sleep
And I wake up
You're within me, you're within me
 
While I walk
While I read
While I work
You're within me, you're within me
While I wait
 
We aren't made for this
Long distances are for the birds
 
One day at a time
Counting weeks and sometimes minutes
One day at a time
A wait has to have an end
 
In my embrace, inside my door
You'd be at home and not visiting

Ludwig Van Beethoven

For the entire day i've been running around town
taking care of all sorts of errands
Now at home, laying at a sofa half asleep
Radio is still on and i'm so exhausted
I'm tired, i'm too tired to get up and turn it off
It is playing something beautiful, ornamental, touching
of better ones, those better people's stuff
 
Ludwig Van Beethoven
is playing on the radio
Ludwig Van Beethoven's ninth symphony
Ludwig Van Beethoven
is playing on the radio
And no one has heard of Rock'n Roll
nor about Ulrike Meinhof's death
And i'm just sleeping and sleeping,
i'm just sleeping
 
I should be going to the store
before it closes as well
The fridge is all empty
and my belly isn't satisfied with Beethoven
Orchestra is playing on the radio
Everybody knows their notes,
Everybody has their suits
Even the audience knows
how to behave
I have a record
Albert Järvinen plays on it
And neighbors, They're thumping the walls with a rhythm
 
Ludwig Van Beethoven
is playing on the radio
Ludwig Van Beethoven's ninth symphony
Ludwig Van Beethoven
is playing on the radio
And no one has heard of Rock'n Roll
nor about Ulrike Meinhof's death
And i'm just sleeping and sleeping,
i'm just sleeping

Part of the way

Make it out
Look towards the light
Lift up a heavy head
Find tracks
After a snowstorm
Try to sing without sound
 
Begin
A new story
Put down last year's book
Open up
To a stranger
Feel that this will turn out fine
 
You and I
We're going the same way, I think
Can we walk together part of the way
Are you coming
I've been busy lately
I have something to do I should've done long ago
 
It takes some time
I've always been like this
I know you've struggled to understand
It takes some time
But don't push me
You're not the one who's going
 
You and I
We're going the same way, I think
Can we walk together part of the way
Are you coming
I've been busy lately
I have something to do I should've done long ago
 
Colorless feelings
Without names, without faces, without harbors
Have hung up to dry and faded in the sun
I never had a use for them anyway
 
You and I
We're going the same way, I think
Can we walk together part of the way
Are you coming
I've been busy lately
I have something to do I should've done long ago

Don't You Worry

The curvy roads of the world
Are made of stones
Who's crazy enough to carry
Stones along his shoes?
 
Worrying about tomorrow is useless
It comes in time
New grieving sorrows
Surely follows
 
Perhaps i'm just lying,
Perhaps i'm proud
But merely of water
Life is not
 
Don't you worry
Young lass
What are tears
Good for?
Grieves won't end by grieving,
Dancing and singing are more important
(Dancing and singing are more important)
 
If your bread's scattered in the world
And your wine bitter
Don't throw it away unfinished, lass,
There is also better
 
Faith, hope and give away
What is yours?
Give it away without remorse
That which is useless
 
Songs are made to be sung,
To fly like birds
We're seeking to find meaning
To life
 
Don't you worry
Young lass
What are tears
Good for?
Grieves won't end by grieving,
Dancing and singing are more important
(2x)
 
Dancing and singing are more important...

First sign of Spring


When winter long remains
you're waiting for a sunny moment
A sign and you already know -
the time is close
 
Night and cold a memory remain,
when your world smiles
 
With you together until the end
We'll forget all sorrows
When spring blooms again
The sun warms us with gentle caress
and life follows it's plan
When spring within us blooms
 
Warm wind caresses you
No ice or snow
You've turned the page,
And the forest awakes
 
The clouds disappear and the sky is glowing
 
With you again together we'll be
When spring within us blooms
 
- When will I grow antlers?
- Very soon, if we're really alike.
- Are we?
- There is only one way to find out!
 
When spring within us blooms,
A new season has warmed
The father and son -
Everything around them grows with joy
Every minute they are closer,
The feeling becomes stronger
 
Together till the end
We'll forget all sorrows
When spring again blooms
And the sun warms us with gentle caress
Life follows it's plan
When spring within us blooms
When spring within us blooms
When spring within us blooms
