Pidä pinnalla pää [English translation]

you want to run

further than your father ever did

he is in a deeper swam

than your mother ever was

the houses of the block

will soon look dilapidated

the dazzling southerly lights

accelerate the pulse

time is a wave

it takes care

that slates stay clean

inexorable is its force

and its direction

but keep your head above the surface

time is a wave

it cleanses

destroys the wrong trees

inexorable is its flow

and its direction

but keep your head above the surface

there is a point in every smile

and death also echoes in laughs

but we also have the morning dew

which clings to our skin

I carry you carefully

and I teach you everything I can

I show you the beautiful horizon

where I sailed to sometimes

time is a wave...

so now I carry you

until you carry me

until it's your turn

to plant a new forest

time is a wave...

keep your head above the surface
