Sellaista elämä on [English translation]

You wanderer 16 years of age

I see the tears in your eyes

I can't be the one to help you

Not even the one to understand you

But listen to me, I'll tell you what

Even a 40-year-old cries sometimes

Because actually, approximately

That's what life is like

You wanderer 16 years of age

What broke your innermost

Did your feelings get played with by the one

With whom warm is only their hand

You'll have to get used to that, this I can promise

Even a 40-year-old is often disappointed like this

Because actually, approximately

That's what life is like

You wanderer 16 years of age

You're letting no one close to you

Misused has been your love

And offended was your pride

But you'll get better soon, that I know

Because even a 40-year-old does recover like this

Because actually, approximately

That's what life is like

Once a wanderer 16 years of age

I was too in my time

I thought then that at least half of

All my dreams were gone

You don't believe me now, but I promise this

Even a 40-year-old still dreams

Because actually, approximately

That's what life is like
