      Finland, behold, thy daylight now is dawning,1
      the threat of night has now been driven away.
      The skylark calls across the light of morning,
      the blue of heaven lets it have its sound,
      and now the day the powers of night is scorning:
      thy daylight dawns, O Finland of ours!
      Finland, arise, and raise towards the highest
      thy head now crowned with mighty memory.
      Finland, arise, for to the world thou criest
      that thou hast thrown off thy slavery,
      beneath oppression's yoke thou never liest.
      Thy morning's come, O Finland of ours!

    It can be difficult for non-Finns to properly understand the impact Jean Sibelius and the Finlandia Hymn had on Finland's independence movement. Sibelius captured the mood of an entire people that had, patiently, been a province of other empires for a very long time, but was ready to be a new nation.
    Every time I watch this video, tears come to my eyes, with pride. Finland started poor - and weak - and now it is strong, comfortable, and stable.
    Suomi - our heart for Finns still there, and for Finns overseas - we are all one, and we are so proud of what our people have done and overcome.

      I moved away from Finland about 5 years ago. I regularly come to listen this and cry my eyes out. Finland has it¨s challenges and the weather is what it is but I have come to love, for lack of a better expression, the "Finnish spirit". Even though these are often idealized there is something so beautiful and unique about how a poor populace rose to be one of the most advanced nations through honest work, egalitarian values and stoic perseverance. It is sad to see these values eroded via using peoples ignorance to further hateful xenophobic populist rhetoric and austerity measures directed towards the poor :/

      @haijyvelho 8 років тому +33

      Good! That means they probably failed at what they aimed for. They work against their own interest with this video. But what I said is happening. It is their goal to not directly attack patriotism or independence celebration but to re-define it. Finnishness has nothing to do with multiculturalism or tolerance but that is what they are trying to make it into. Patriotism is the love for your country and defending the interest of your own people. But now if you say that you're not a "patriot" but a "nazi".
      Finland gained independence in 1917 so next year in 2017 it's the 100th anniversary. I don't know if I should eagerly wait for the celebration or prepare to see something very depressing when it's actually all about refugees and tolerance again and not about celebrating our nation and its independence and culture.
      The official cabinet in charge of financing different events and projects for the anniversary consists of leftists and even has a far-left rap artist who waves around Antifa flags in his music videos (???). They have already spent hundreds of thousands of euros on refugee and multiculture-related projects instead of actually financing something related to Finns...
      Antifa in Finland uses, as its symbols, images like a man putting the Finnish flag into a trash can and a fist breaking apart the coat of arms of Finland and the symbol of our police. That is the kind of people who are chosen for whatever reason to finance our independence celebration. Not someone who loves our country.

      This is my song, O God of all the nations,
      a song of peace for lands afar and mine;
      this is my home, the country where my heart is;
      here are my hopes, my dreams, my holy shrine:
      but other hearts in other lands are beating
      with hopes and dreams as true and high as mine.
      My country's skies are bluer than the ocean,
      and sunlight beams on cloverleaf and pine;
      but other lands have sunlight too, and clover,
      and skies are everywhere as blue as mine:
      O hear my song, thou God of all the nations,
      a song of peace for their land and for mine.

    It brings me to tears too and I'm an American from Philadelphia, the birth place of freedom in a country which endured slavery at it inception. It's called -"This is my song" in our our Daily Mass hymnals with credit to Jean Sibelius .I know about the Russo-Finnish war and the bravery the Finns showed against the Russians. Every time It's played at Mass, I sing it but can't make it through our translation where it says other countries have skies as blue as my country. This line just exemplifies the brotherhood which should exist between different countries of the world. And to think of all the wars which were fought over stupid things and the lives which were lost fighting those wars. So, what I say is let them listen to this song and see if they would wage war and if they would start a war,let them fear bravery and honor like the Finns showed in 1939.

      LOL indeed, freedom! What's that? Never feeling that before, I don't even know what that word means. Do you?
      "None are more hopelessly enslaved, than those who falsely believe they are free." - JWVG - Exactly.
      And of course. What John Adams say a long time ago, that reminds me that what the world has ALWAYS been, by the - cults, societies, governments, organizations, countries and of course biggest jokes - religions.
      "There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by sword, the other is by debt." - John Adams. That sounds so familiar, nothing hasn't changed.
      I will sing that beautiful song of our country, which is on this video, when all those things has fall, which is never.

      Philadelphia is the area where Finns first settled in what's now the USA.
      It was within the Swedish colony in the colonial time already.
      Finns are said to have had good relationships with the indigenous people.
      Both respected nature, and knew how to live in the woods with a respect towards the nature.
      When Philadelphia was founded, it was a common effort by the Dutch, English and Swedes + Finns.
      John Morton (rendered from Mårtensson, Marttinen the Finnish original -'Martins' or the kind) from that Finnish community gave the decisive vote for the birth of the US, the Pennsylvania vote. He was also the chairman of the legislative committee, when they made the first laws, the constitution: the Articles of Confederation. At least so says Wiki. Well, he was a lawyer of the supreme court, so should be legit.

    Filling the air to heaven's great height,
    And morning's glow, night's darkness overcoming;
    Your day is come, o my native land.
    O Finland, rise, stand proud, the future facing,
    Your valiant deeds recalling, once again;
    O Finland rise, in the world's sight erasing
    From your fair brows vile slavery's stain.
    You were not broken by oppressors ruling;
    Your morn has come, o my native land.

      @@driverain2 The melody is written by Jean Sibelius in 1899, during the times of Russian oppression. This was later complemented by the lyrics (typically sung by a male choir) by V. A. Koskenniemi. The original works written by Sibelius were symphonic poems about the tribulations of the Finnish people, mixed in with some of our folklore. The lyrics to this particular hymn were written in 1940, after the winter war against Soviet Russia.

      @herrakaarme Рік тому +2

      It doesn't actually have original words. It was composed by Sibelius without words, but still the Russian authorities didn't like it much because they understood it was used in contexts promoting Finnish resistance to the Russian oppression/Russification. If it had had lyrics like this back then, I imagine folks would have been arrested for inciting rebellion against the Russian empire. Consequently these particular lyrics are from 1940, right after the Winter War. There exist different lyrics, from different countries, like you noted. From what I've understood, Sibelius himself was never thrilled about any lyrics on principle, but a little bit grudgingly he accepted them.
