Lyrics
Joka ilta saman tuvan kuistilla
Vanhus istuu, laulaa vanhaa laulua
Sanat saarnin oksilta tuuleen lentävät
Puun tuon tarinan muistaa enää hän
Kolmen maailman rajalla
Juuret maassa kaiken lähteellä
Kurkottaa jätti iäinen ain' taivaaseen
Lehvänsä suojelevat
Tietoa varjelevat
Viisautta veden maanalaisen
Saapui pihaan kerran vieras ihminen
Toi mukanaan mies laulun aavikon
Pian saapui kylään myös vieras uskonto
Luojansa moni siihen paikkaan unohti
Kolmen maailman rajalla
Juuret maassa kaiken lähteellä
Kurkottaa jätti iäinen ain' taivaaseen
Aika alkaa ennen aikaa
Tuhat tarinaa vailla kertojaa
Kohtalot oikukkaat ihmisten
Kerran saneltiin tässä
Laki jumalten korkeuksista
Jokaiseen maailmaan ehti
Joet uomiinsa jäätyneet
Toisaalla ruokkivat maata
Siitä joillekin tuli Helvetti
Käärmeitä Täynnänsä
Maan äidin povella kasvoi
Elon järkähtämätön tuva
Voimansa ammensi viisaudesta
Ajasta aikaan unohtuneesta
Lehvänsä suojelivat
Tietoa varjelivat
Saa ilta hilhaisella juistilla
Ei vanhus jaksa tulla enää laulamaan
Vehreä saarnin oksilta pois on karissut
Muiston viimeisenkin polttaa aurinko
Kolmen maailman rajalla
Lehdet maassa kaiken lähteellä
Liekehtii hätti iäinen
Every evening on the same porch
An elder sits, sings an old song
Words fly to the wind from the branches of the ash
Only he remembers the story of that tree
On the frontier of three worlds
Roots in the ground at the spring of all
The giant forever reaching out for heavens
Its sprigs they protect
Enshrining knowledge
The wisdom of an underwater world
A stranger once arrived at the cabin
Along he brought the desert’s song
Soon a strange religion also arrived in the village
And many forgot their creator
On the frontier of three worlds
Roots in the ground at the spring of all
The giant forever reaching out for heavens
Time begins before time
A thousand stories with no one to tell them
The fickle fates of men
Here once were dictated
The law of the gods from heights
Reached every world
Rivers frozen in their beds
Elsewhere fed the land
For some it become Hell
Swarming with serpents
On the bosom of mother earth there grew
The ommovable security of life
Drawing its strength from wisdom
Forgotten from time to time
Its sprigs they protected
Enshrined the knowledge
Evening falls at the silent porch
The elder too weary to sing
The green has fallen off the branches of the ash
The last memories burnt away by the sun
On the frontier of three worlds
Roots in the ground at the spring of all
The eternal giant in flames
Lyrics translation
Every night on the porch of the same house
Old man sitting, singing old song
Words flying from the branches of the sermon to the wind
The tree's story will be remembered no more by him
On the border of three worlds
Roots in the Earth at the source of everything
♪ Reaching out to heaven ♪
Protecting their foliage
Protecting information
Wisdom of the water underground
A stranger once entered the yard
Brought with him the song of the desert
Soon arrived in the village also foreign religion
Many of his creators forgot about the place
On the border of three worlds
Roots in the Earth at the source of everything
♪ Reaching out to heaven ♪
Time starts before time
A thousand stories without a narrator
Fates fickle people
Once dictated here
Law on the heights of the gods
Every world had time.
Frozen rivers
Elsewhere feed the Earth
It turned into hell for some people.
Snakes In Full
Mother Earth's bosom grew
Elo's steadfast support
His power was drawn from wisdom
From time forgotten
Their foliage protected
The information was protected
Get a night out with a cheery juist
The old man can't come back to sing anymore.
The green from the branches of the sermon has escaped
The last burn of memory is the sun
On the border of three worlds
Leaves on the ground at the source of everything
The fire is blazing forever
Every evening on the same porch
An elder sits, sings an old song
Words fly to the wind from the branches of the ash
Only he reminders the story of that tree
On the frontier of three worlds
Roots in the ground at the spring of all
The giant forever reaching out for heaven
Its sprigs they protect
Enshrine knowledge
The wisdom of an underwater world
A stranger once arrived at the cabin
Long he brought the desert's song
Soon a strange religion also arrived in the village
And many forgot their creator
On the frontier of three worlds
Roots in the ground at the spring of all
The giant forever reaching out for heaven
Time begins before time
A thousand stories with no one to tell them
The fickle fates of men
Here once was dicted
The law of the gods from heights
Reached every world
Rivers frozen in their beds
Elsewhere fed the land
For some it become Hell
Swarming with serpents
On the bosom of mother earth there grew
The ommovable security of life
Drawing its strength from wisdom
Forgotten from time to time
Its sprigs they protected
Enshrined the knowledge
Evening falls at the silent porch
The elder too weary to sing
The green has fallen off the branches of the ash
The last memories burnt away by the sun
On the frontier of three worlds
Roots in the ground at the spring of all
The eternal giant in flames
