Re: Finland ~ WV22 ~ Nightwish - Turn Loose The Mermaids

Finland entry for WorldVision-22
Nightwish - Turn Loose The Mermaids



Lyrics:

A kite above a graveyard grey
At the end of the line far far away
A child holding on to the magic of birth and awe

Oh, how beatiful it used to be
Just you and me far beyond the sea
The waters, scarce in motion
Quivering still

At the end of the river the sundown beams
All the relics of a life long lived
Here, weary traveller rest your wand
Sleep the journey from your eyes

Good journey, love, time to go
I checked your teeth and warmed your toes
In the horizon I see them coming for you

The mermaid grace, the forever call
Beauty in spyglass on an old man's porch
The mermaids you turned loose brought back your tears


xlove xlove xlove

Re: Finland ~ WV23 ~ Moonsorrow - Matkan Lopussa

Finland entry for WorldVision-23
Moonsorrow - Matkan Lopussa



Lyrics (in Finnish):

Painavi mieleni
Kuin kaikki maa
Vaipuu jo eloni
Sammalten taa

Ikihonkain siimekseen
Yksin nyt jn
Menneet on linnut sen
Lehvt vain nn

Sulkeutuu maailma kerran
Ihmisen eest
Laulunsa viimeinen
Taivaisiin soi

Symmeni kyyneleet
Kuin kastetta ois
Mukana tuulen
Ne kulkeutuu pois

Sulkeutuu maailma kerran
Ihmisen eest
Laulunsa viimeinen
Taivaisiin soi

Lyrics translation in English:


xlove xlove xlove

xbow xbow xbow

Re: Finland ~ WV23 ~ Moonsorrow - Matkan Lopussa

reminds me of the Russian folk songs

The melody of this song is indeed based on traditional Russian songs.
The first known version is Russian hussar mazurka from the 18th century. Later there were several Russian songs which used parts of that melody or it was similar in other traditional songs also in Finnish with other lyrics.

Lyrics for this song written by Ville Sorvali from Moonsorrow.

Re: Finland ~ WV24 ~ Leverage - Wolf And The Moon

Finland entry for WorldVision-24
Leverage - Wolf And The Moon



Lyrics:

Mistress of the starry night
Is rising fall prey to her might
The temptress rising
Moon dancing in her veils

Shaking the soul way deep inside
The curse prevails
The haunted mind
Crying on the hills of sadness

The love once beautiful
Now forever falling down
The wolf is growling in my soul
It´s fighting to get out

Hey you, you tore away my heart
I see you in the cruel moonlight
With your arms around a stranger
It´s true, it´s made me lose my mind
Now you´d better save yourselves
Go hide yourselves
Run from the wolf and the moon

Wish this all would disappear
Sense the end in drawing near
For broken heartless scales
Just can´t be evened out
I know I love you just too much
The moon reminds me of your touch
The wolf howls in rage and madness

Hey you, you tore away my heart
I see you in the cruel moonlight
With your arms around a stranger
It´s true, it´s made me lose my mind
Now you´d better save yourselves
Go hide yourselves
Run from the wolf and the moon

The wolf and the moon
The wolf and the moon

"I wish I could forgive you
I wish I could forget
I wish the moonlight never brought me here
´Cause now that same light wants you dead..."

The wolf and the moon
The wolf and the moon

The love once beautiful
Now forever falling down
The wolf is growling in my soul
Screaming: "Let me out!"
Hey you, you tore away my heart
I see you in the cruel moonlight
With your arms around a stranger
It´s true, it´s made me lose my mind
And now you´d better save yourselves
Go hide yourselves
Run from the wolf and the moon

From the wolf and the moon
Run from the wolf and the moon

xlove xlove xlove
