Translation of the song Aina ku Aira artist Pyhimys

Finnish

Aina ku Aira

English translation

Always like Aira

Ikuisesti vanha ja iso Japanis

Forever old and big in Japan

Perheparka, oon himas taas tapaniks

My poor family, I'll be back home by Boxing Day

Alkanu kutsuu noit kapakoit satamiks

I've started to call those pubs harbours

Niiden väliä vaan seilaan

I'm just sailing between them

Mitä tarjoo enää vuodet 25 plus?

What do the years 25 plus have to offer anymore?

Nousin sijotuspankista taksiin just

I just took a taxi from the investment bank

Voisin mökillä keinuttaa lapsii mut

I could be at the summer cottage pushing my kids on the swing but

Niille jussina Maltalta meilaan

I'll mail them from Malta at midsummer

Huikka Kossuu Graalin maljasta

A sip of Koskenkorva1 from the Holy Grail

Etten mun ryppystä sieluu paljasta

So that I won't reveal my wrinkly soul

Raivon takana on pakopaikka mulla

Behind the rage I have a hideaway

Siellä me ei koskaan aikusiks tulla

Where we never become adults

Tieto tuskaks, oppi ikää

Knowledge to pain,2 live and learn

Ei tuonu Tsiisuskaa lohtuu mitää

Not even Jesus could comfort me

Mut edelleen mä tanssin ja uskon niin

But I'm still dancing and believe so

Oon tääl aina ku Aira Samulin

I'll be here always, like Aira Samulin3

Elämä alkaa niin hitaasti, hitaasti

Life begins so slowly, slowly

Ettei edes huomaa sen kuluvan

That you don't even notice it passing you by

Hitaasti sun rajallisuuden mä tajuan

Slowly I'm beginning to understand your finiteness

Ja me luvattiin...

And we promised to

Olla nuoria aina, nuoria aina, aina

Always be young, always young, always

Olla nuoria aina, nuoria aina, aina ku Aira

Always be young, always young, always like Aira

Ku me luvattiin olla yhes aina

When we promised to always be together

Se tarkotti ainaki viel ens lauantaina

It meant at least until next Saturday

Koulun takana sua kopeloin

I fumbled you behind the school

Mut vaan paidan pinnalla mä operoin

But I operated only over the shirt

Muutenki asiat oli sitä miltä näytti ulos

Things were how they seemed like anyway

En tienny vielä mikä oli tissien tulos

I didn't know what was the result of boobs yet

Laskupää ei sellaseen riittäny

I wasn't good enough at math4

Enkä koskaan kai sua kokemuksest kiittäny

And I think I never thanked you for the experience

Kiire oli kasvaa, kaveril on kiesi

I was busy growing up, a friend of mine had a car

Ja kuitenki kaiken jo kaikesta tiesi

And still you knew everything about everything

Jos kumi ois revenny, ois pidetty se kersa

If the condom had broken we would have kept the kid

Ku omaa nuoruuttaan ei voi pilata ku kerran

Because you can only ruin your youth once

Paremman puutteessa nostalgisoin

I nostalgize, faute de mieux

Juon Hendricksin kurkulla koska mä voin

I drink my Hendrick's with cucumber because I can

Sain jotain, ei, kaiken mitä toivoin

I got something, no, everything I wished

Mut kaiken antaisin pois

But I could give it all away
