SANKARIN TANGO
AHTI
Järveks luulin merta kerran runon lausui hän
Mysteerin sen syövereissä vietti elämän
Alla synkän valtameren varjois vaeltaa
Etsii tietä valoon luokse armaan ainiaan
Yksin sankar yöhön syvemmälle matkaa pois
Se taakka hänen harteillaan kuin lupaus aina ois
Täs pelissä tää narri lyödäänmaahan aina vaan
Vaan hetki kuolos lepoo suodaan
Jo takas kutsutaan
Aika särkyy ikuisuuteen laukaus kajahtaa
Ei onnellista loppua hän kohtaa milloinkaan
Niin monta kertaa kerrottu tää tarina jo on
Sankarilla tuhat kasvoo polku lohduton
Yksin sankar yöhön syvemmälle matkaa pois
Se taakka hänen harteillaan kuin lupaus aina ois
Täs pelissä tää narri lyödäänmaahan aina vaan
Vaan hetki kuolos lepoo suodaan
Jo takas kutsutaan
THE HERO’S TANGO
AHTI
(TRANSLATED)
Once, he mistook an ocean for a lake, he told us in a poem
In the depths of that mystery he spent his whole life
Under a dark ocean, in the shadows he wanders
Searching for a way back into the light to his loved one
Alone, the hero continues his journey into the night
That burden on his shoulders forever like a promise
In this game this fool is struck down again and again
Only a moments rest in death before he's called back again
Time breaks into eternity, a gunshot echoes
There’s never a happy end for him
This story has been told many times before
The hero has a thousand faces and a hopeless path
Alone, the hero continues his journey into the night
That burden on his shoulders forever like a promise
In this game this fool is struck down again and again
Only a moments rest in death before he's called back again
