Listen to a brief mp3 sample of this song, performed by Närhi in 1975, by clicking here
Hän näyttää vain oven |
She shows me the door |
ja katsoo kuin kyy. |
And stares like an adder |
Saan sieluuni loven |
I get a notch in my soul |
ja juomisen syyn. |
And a reason to drink |
Niin saaren mä ostan |
So, I'll buy me an island |
sen vien aurinkoon. |
and take it to the sun |
Näin itsellein kostan |
I revenge myself |
kun uin kolpakkoon. |
By swimming into a pint |
|
|
Sä oot muistelmissain |
You're in my memoirs |
ja niihin myös jäät. |
And there you'll stay |
Ne myyn vielä jossain |
I'll sell them somewhere |
ja kääntyvät päät. |
And the heads will turn |
Joo lentsikan järkkään. |
Yea, I'll arrange me an aeroplane |
Sen muistoistain teen |
I'll build them from my memories |
ja kaulukset tärkkään |
And I'll starch the collars |
kun taivaaseen meen |
When I go to heaven |
|
|
Tää yks pois vain haluu |
This one wants to go away |
ja ei kuitenkaan. |
But actually doesn't |
Kun on meno-paluu, |
This is a return ticket |
jos tää tutkitaan. |
When carefully inspected |
Saat mun salaisuudet |
You'll have all my secrets |
mun nimenkin saat, |
You'll get my name too |
jos nää runot uudet |
If these new poems |
mun kanssani jaat. |
You share with me |
"All possible errors are my fault. I've listened to a crackling old LP from 1975 and taken the words from there."
Thanks, Rainer Frilund
