lyrics

3. Äidin luonto
text&music: Nikolai Blad
(translation below)

sankassa pyryssä
autolla sairaalasta
tuskin näemme tietä
sankassa pyryssä
kuten äiti,
kotimatkalla

Pääsiäisenä
pajunkissa lymyilee
valoa silmuissa
ja hanki hupenee
maan päältä
kuten äiti täältä

vuorenkilpi rehottaa
täydessä kukassa
kun lähdetään kaupunkiin
sekin lähtisi
pojanpojan lakkiaisiin
kuten äiti

lämmin ilta pimenee
vieraat saapuvat
ja suuri yöperhonen
lentää kuistin lampulle
kuokkavieraana
pimeydestä

ja mä tiedän, äiti
sun laulus soi
täällä aina
vaikkei ollut kertosäettä
ei hoosiannaa
se soi,
soi

Mother’s Nature

in a dense snowfall
by car from the hospital
we hardly see the road
in the dense snowfall
like mother,
on the way home

At Easter
pussy willows lurking
light in the loop
and snow disappears
from the ground
like mother from here

Bergenia rampant
in full bloom
when we leave for the city
it would also leave
for the grandson’s student celebration
like mother

warm evening darkens
guests arrive
and a large moth
flies to the porch lamp
a hoe guest
from the darkness

and I know, mom
your song is sung
always here
even though it had no chorus
nor hosianna
it is sung
