River
The stream of life
Brings us the hope and faith
Carries all of our sorrows away
At night the river so sincere
The moonlight reflects from its surface
So blank and so calm
Silence is here waiting for
The silver hordes from the downstream
We never gave up the hope
And we never will
The moonlight enlights their path
The journey that ends at the estuary gates of vanity
Where the lock is sealed by the steel and concrete
Where the river banks cry out for emptiness
The day will come and the flood
That vanishes all the filth and barriers on its way
And the chains are past
Two streams of kings
The forces unite
Unite as one to be
For the future to know
For the future to see
We are the future
And these rivers will be free
Two streams of kings
And the hordes from the north
Together to execute the justice
To increase the powers
All the way from the north
Let your water flow
Break all the chains
The time has come
My teary eyes
A gaze to the riverside
To be born into this legacy
Where the extinction is
A sign of victory
Where the egoism and selfishness is
A herd's principle
A gaze over the river valley
Where it all went wrong?
We are the one's in need
Without we don't exist
We were supposed to be sagacious
We are the sacrilege instead
The concrete walls
In the middle of the forestry stream
To kill species to extinction
Is all as you please
But one mystic night
I saw all four seasons
I heard the waves from the north
And I knew...
"The beauty of the colors of the leaves that are born and died
There was a winterstorm, still moss greenish
It all teemed before my eyes
The prophecy was finally coming true"
The day will come and the flood
The flood of all times
That vanishes all the filth and barriers on its way
And the chains are past
Two streams of kings
The forces unite
Unite as one to be
For the future to know
For the future to see
We are the future
And these rivers will be free
Two streams of kings
And the hordes from the north
Together to execute the justice
To increase the powers
All the way from the north
Let your water flow
Break all the chains
The time has come
The time has come... now
Let the waves in
River Ounas calling me
To let it be free
River Ounas calling me
To eternity
We've took the advantage of these rivers
Without giving anything back
Year after year
Blindly believing in our purposes
Painted the picture like we wanted it to be, no
Forced the dwellers to retreat
From the villages that drowned
River Ounas, a vein of the land
Mourns its brothers destiny
A villages left under the water
Where the gallops and cries can still be heard
River Ounas calling me
To let it be free
River Ounas calling me
To eternity
River Ounas calling me
Let the waves in...
"Alavirrasta kohti yläjuoksua
Heidän matkansa oli tarkoitus viedä
Voimasta ja kunniasta
Tuo hopeinen voima jatkoi matkaansa
Matkaa joka alkoi tuhansien kilometrien takaa
Elämän jano ohjasi heidän kulkuaan
Vuosi vuoden jälkeen
Näin kului vuosisatoja
Sitten saapuivat miehet
Vuonna 1949
Pelkomme olivat toteutuneet
Kun betoniset portit sulkeutuivat edessämme
Onko tämä totta?
Sanat kaikuvat vieläkin rannoilla
Tämä joki on tehty kyynelistä
Ja kyyneleet tulevat virtaamaan"
