from Karita Mattila's CD, SydÀn Suomessa. My favourite song on the CD by composer Oskar Merikanto Finnish is not my dominant language, so I realize there may be some errors in my translation... If you notice any, please notify me :-) English translation: I am alive! What joy! Ah, what joy and song doth in my veins ring! My heart has never beat like this before; What splendour and incandescence fills me. I sing, I sing, I sing For the Lord created me for singing! I could be dead already Below deadly flowers and dark night. No, no, I am alive, I feel it, As my soul grows, struggling, Towards the stars by High Works. I am alive, I am alive, I am alive! To you, Life, the greatest song rings. Holy Spring crowns my life. I am again the world's young king. I sing, I sing, I sing, For the Lord created me for singing! CD booklet translation: I am alive, ah, what joy, What joy and what music in my veins, My heart has never beat like this before; What glow and brilliance fills me, I sing, I sing, I sing, For the Lord made me for singing! I could be dead already, Under the grave-flowers And the dark night, But no, I am alive, I can feel it, How my soul aspires through tribulations To the stars, by its noble work! I am alive, I am alive, I am alive! Too thee, Life, my highest praises be sung! May sacred Spring crown my spirit, Now I am the young King of life again, I sing, I sing, I sing, For the Lord made me for singing!
Finnish Karita Mattila sings on her CD SydÀn Suomessa. Translation, to the best of my ability :-) Little girl, of blue eyes Red cheeks, rosy mouth Sit there upon my knee It will be a singing perch for thee Sing for me, sing for others Sing for the whole world So that, before our time, Our hearts will not age Sing, girl, so that sorrow Will not wrinkle your brow So that grief will not shatter your soul Hope that the days brighten CD booklet translation: Little girl with eyes of blue, Rosy cheeks and lips, Come and sit upon my knee, A branch to sing upon. Sing to me, sing to others, Sing to all the world So that our hearts May not grow old before their time. Sing to me, girl, so our foreheads Will not crease with sorrow, So we will not brood continually But brighten our days with hope.
