Niin kaunis on hiljaisuus [English translation]

Unknown soldier walks

can't remember but feels

the ocean of fire in the morning

swinging at the hot waves

he sits at the root of the tree

to look at the picture of his girl

his eyes are stinging

when has seen too much

but more it hurts

when writes at home

how beautiful is the silence

and more beautiful is longing

for a moment can be at memories

a wink is eternity

how beautiful is the silence

somewhere there the secret stays

soul is distraught from sadness

when cant see his dearest

they told her that at home

they might walk soon who knows

but if he stays here at his memories

then he is a lost man

she knows how it feels

when stays in the silence

and the cloudy veil of smokecurtain

everything former is gone

but as long as he walks

he will leave his traces

how beautiful is the silence
