Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da [English translation]

Although at home there are sweethearts waiting for all of us.

we all love a certain old gentleman.

We tenderly call him Tallinn

and the heart rejoices when the ride home is ahead.

Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da, come along,

you won't ever regret.

Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da, getting everything

makes the mood merry.

Vana Toomas1 is waiting for us in Viru Street,

on his belt, a bunch of keys jingle on his belt.

But his heart is young and his eyes shine,

the loyal city guard gathers up a dance vivaciously.

Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da, come along,

you won't ever regret.

Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da, getting everything

makes the mood merry.

There, on the narrow streets, it's full of life, yes-yes.

His old tower has its own soul

and there are hundreds of eyes in the walls.

Let a restaurant invite you into the bosom of the old wall

or bar Karoliina beguiles you.

You cannot resist their invitation

and happily, you'll direct your steps in that direction.

Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da, come along,

you won't ever regret.

Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da, getting everything

makes the mood merry.

And lasses there are so pretty, yes-yes.

They have a sweet tooth for songs and they themselves are sweet too,

you cannot get your eyes off of them.

Although sometimes our sweethearts cheat [on] us,

the old gentleman is always true.

And that is why the songs about dear Tallinn

are resounding on the lips of all of us, travellers.

Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da, come along,

you won't ever regret.

Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da, getting everything

makes the mood merry.

And the mood is made merry by this Ob-la-di, goodbye, hey!
