lyrics

Jag vet att du söker
Efter den sista stig du behöver ta
Jag vet att du behöver
En väg som leder hem till slut
Du vet att jag blöder
För det land som glömts bort
Du vet att jag försöker
men våra hjärtan är begravda i norr

Du fagra vandrande kvinna
Låt mig gå några mil med dig
Ensam är vår färd
För oss som vandrar utan härd

Jag vet att du gråter
För det språk som har gått förlorat
Jag vet att du förlåter
Det brott som tog det ifrån dig

Du fagra vandrande kvinna
Låt mig gå några mil med dig
Ensam är vår färd
För oss som vandrar utan härd

Hyvän illan sanon sulle, kultani armas
kun tulen taas sua tervehtimään.
Sinisiä silmiä, kasvoja kauniita
mun teki mielenin kattelemaan

Ja vaikka minä vaeltasin ympäri maata
ja asusin jo jäämeren takana,
niin kuvasi on kätketty sydämeni alle.
Toivoni ei pidä lakata

ENGLISH:
I know that you are searching
After the last path that you have to walk
I know that you need
A road that leads you home
You know that I am bleeding
For the land that was forgotten
You know that I am trying
But our hearts are buried in the north

Oh, fair, wandering woman
Let me walk a few miles beside you
Lonely is our journey
For those of us who walk without hearth

I know that you are crying
For the language that was lost
I know that you forgive
The crime which took it from you

Oh, fair, wandering woman
Let me walk a few miles beside you
Lonely is our journey
For those of us who walk without hearth

Good evening I say to you, my beloved
As I come to see you again
Your blue eyes, your beautiful face
I longed to see them

And even if I wandered around the world
And lived across the Arctic Ocean
Your picture will be hidden under my heart
I must never lose hope
