Varttina rocks !! They are so cool and funny... I´ve seen them twice performing live and must say that they´re amazing. This choral version is really wonderful. Only voices and - Tachan !!... What a miracle !! I´m a member of a little choir and one of my crazy dreams is to sing this with them, but now they´re complaining about a little german, so I´m afraid that lightspeed finnish is going to be too much for them, lol. But I´m still a great daydreamer soooooo....
So sang my mother before (in the old days) So sang many before and my mother (too) Sang a maiden to a child Sang with skill Sing while you are alone, while your man is elsewhere Sing maiden, when you are young. You'll get worry about men later. Song others, please. Im too tired. And it's not worthy singing to THESE boys. (Hehe) Translating is pretty fun. :D
Yes, but the verb 'maksaa' = cost, as in 'This T shirt costs 10 euros', is a homonym, looks completely same while it's a different word. Here it means 'isn't worth the trouble'.
@brendanmcooney They seem to have changed their activities to Facebook, but the lyrics (and translations) can still be found in their (old) web page: varttina . com (without the spaced) select: "Discography" select: "Kokko (1996)" select: "lyrics page" (at the bottom of the page) Lyrics for "Emoni ennen" are the last entry. HTH HTH
Helló! November 1.-én Värttina koncert Prágában. Mi megyünk páran Budapestről. Sörgyár és városnézés este meg koncer. Ha valakit érdekel üzenjen iwiwen Pálvölgyi Jetinek

Goosebumps each time I listen to this one... So strong and beautiful !
Great!! And they're all beautiful.
Je n'ai rien compris, mais j'ai ressenti la joie et la volonté de ce chant ! ;)
Amazing!!! I think here I can also see the girls who later founded Ketsurat with Karo Kantelinen :)
it's beautiful! Also with the background.. lots of singers!

Sing maiden, when you are young. You'll get worry about men later.

this is amazing
WOW!
Thank you very much for the translation!
The thing about this is this is metal. If you were to reorchestrate this from voices to distorted guitars, you'd get a Messhuggah song.

as you can see, finnish girls are the most beautiful ones!
@rafampassos I think you are right. Similar facial expressiveness. Love this song.
Is it Karoliina Kantelinen just next to Susan Aho?
It is. :)
Amazing!! :>
