| Kaukaa, mastot esiin uivat takaa usvan niinkuin maasta menneisyyden
| From afar, masts float out from behind the fog like the earth's past
|
| Kaukaa, kajuutasta soitto kaikuu, tuuli kantaa tanne savelen
| From afar, the sound echoes from the cabin, the wind carries Tanne Savelen
|
| Kaukaa, uivat laivat valkolaivat maasta jonka unhoittuneen luulin
| From afar, the ships sailed white ships from a land I thought I forgot
|
| Takaa usvaverhojen, takaa maitten merien, takaa vuorten, maitten merien
| Behind the veils of the fog, Behind the seas of the lands, Behind the mountains, the seas of the lands
|
| Kerro mista laivat myotatuulen purjeisiinsa saivat
| Tell me what ships got myot wind on their sails
|
| Mulle tuovatko ne viestin viela jostain kaukaisen
| To me, are they still bringing a message from somewhere far away
|
| Kerro uivatko mun luokseni, nain lapsuudesta laivat
| Tell me if they swim to me, I saw ships from my childhood
|
| Kun lumivalkolaivat uivat sielta lailla pilvien
| When snow-white ships swim from there like clouds
|
| Kun lumivalkolaivat uivat sielta lailla pilvien
| When snow-white ships swim from there like clouds
|
| Jalleen, kastan hien, ruskotuksen naan ja neidot vilkuttavat kaukaa
| Again, I baptize the sweat, the tan and the maidens blink from afar
|
| Jalleen, kangastukset saarten mua lupauksin luokseen houkuttaa
| Again, the weaving of the islands with the promises to attract me
|
| Silloin, laivat minut jattavat, ne vaeltava tuuli kauas kantaa
| Then shall the ships depart from me, and the wind shall depart from them
|
| Taakse usvaverhojen, taakse maitten merien, taakse vuorten, maitten merien
| Behind the veils of the mist, behind the seas of the lands, behind the mountains, the seas of the lands
|
| Kerro mista laivat myotatuulen purjeisiinsa saivat
| Tell me what ships got myot wind on their sails
|
| Mulle tuovatko ne viestin viela jostain kaukaisen
| To me, are they still bringing a message from somewhere far away
|
| Kerro uivatko mun luokseni, nain lapsuudesta laivat
| Tell me if they swim to me, I saw ships from my childhood
|
| Kun lumivalkolaivat uivat sielta lailla pilvien
| When snow-white ships swim from there like clouds
|
| Lumivalkolaivat uivat sielta lailla pilvien
| Snow-white ships swim from there like clouds
|
| Kerro uivatko mun luokseni nain lapsuudesta nain laivat
| Tell me, I saw the ships sailing to me from childhood
|
| Lumivalkolaivat uivat sielta lailla pilvien | Snow-white ships swim from there like clouds |
