Tammi (the Oak) Lyrics

Tammi (the Oak) lyrics

Emoni oven etehen

veittoni verjlle

kasvoi tammi terhehinen

pitk pihlaja yleni.



Haroitteli haarojansa

levitteli
lehtin,

haaroitteli haarojansa,

levitteli lehtin.



Kenp
tammen tuntijaksi,

puun pitkn pitjksi.

Kenp tammen tuntijaksi,

puun pitkn pitjksi.



"Ei olt huolta ollenkana,

ajatusta
ainutta.

Seist seinn vieruessa,

tuulta kuulla kujasessa."



Tuulis tuuli vierellinen,

lasettaisi latvahan.

Sanan veisi,
toisen toisi,

oksallensa omenan.



Toisi linnun lentvisen,

onnen tielle oikialle.

Portin plle liekkumahan,

toet viestit
vieremn.



Ei olt huolta...



Pivn poika valkiane

otti tuon tehksens.

Tammen tuli tuntijaksi,

puun pitkn
pitjksi.



Laati linnut laulamahan,

ket kultaa kukkumaan.

Pivn poika valkiane,

lemmen loihti latvahan.



Ei olt'
huolta...

 By my mother's door,

Beside her gate

There grew an
oak with acorns

High above the rowan.



It stretched its
shoulders wide,

Spreading its leaves around,

It stretched its
shoulders wide,

Spreading its leaves around,



Who knows what
the oak is thinking,

Standing there so tall.

Who knows what the oak
is thinking,

Standing there so tall.



"Not a care have I in
the world,

Not a thought in my head.

Just standing here against the
wall,

Listening to the breezes."



The wind whistled through
the branches,

Setting the tip in turmoil,

Words bringing and
bearing away,

An apple on its branches.



Brought a little
bird flying,

On the road to happiness,

Sitting on the gate
chirping,

Singing its message far and wide.



"Not a care
..."



Came the dawn,
