Joutsen [English translation]

You would quietly sing that slow song

Tonight sometime i would like to sleep

I would see snow, that murdering land

You are there

Your path of crystal ribbon is Ariadne's thread1

I live today

If you you sing that slow song

You wouldn't remember the words, you would sing anything

You would drill black ice, where you can hear voices from beyond

You wouldn't remember the words, you would sing

You would quietly sing that slow song

Tonight rains the snow of my ashes

I only wanted to forget

You would drill black ice, where you can hear voices from beyond

You wouldn't remember the words

Sky is grey, how will i notice

If swan begins its journey?

I live today

If you sing that slow song

You wouldn't remember the words

You would sing anything

You would drill black ice, where you can hear voices from beyond

You wouldn't remember the words, you would sing anything
