Jossain metsäin takana [English translation]

Somewhere beyond the forests, expanses open

Seagulls circle around an old lighthouse

Ships sail to the open sea from the harbour

There, on the deck of a ship, I saw you for the last time

You said forest distresses a searcher of new things

Only inefficient wimps remain in the company of snow

You knew you could conquer the world once you try

The forest parishes shall wilt here with their roots

[Refrain:]

I hope you got the world you were looking for on the roads

That the gold hand of fortune gave you what you looked for

So that your dream wouldn't get trampled to the asphalt of the street

So that your faith in big dreams would survive

Maybe you'll remember the land of forests one day

You'll remember the white clouds over the lakes

You'll remember how a loon1cried in the loneliness of the evening

The delicate song of a willow warbler faded to the dark

[Refrain]

You just can't forget the people of the backwater land

Childhood and youth created steel bonds

You're still one of the group, you will be that forever

You'll have to remember that in the world's feast tables

[Refrain]

Ships sail to the open sea from the harbour

I'm still waiting for you, oh my dear friend
