lyrics

Jorri čalmmit čuvvot
mu maiddái fáipot ja
gopmána su siste
ja čuovvola
gii bat suoládii su golli nu árrat iđđedis
Litna bealde goruda eai beasa guoskat dego
čurrohat ja goike suoidni
Čuvvot mu ja fáipot

Mii ipmašiid lean nu guolgan
ja varran dal ges go
ii lean dat beana
mii bođii soađis
Guoktilašvuohta ii heive buohkaide
Dušše sidjiide geat eai leat eatnamis ja
Sis leat earálagan dovddut go dus

Ii leat vejolaš vajáldahttit
Vásit ja jus don
It muitte de sii muitet
Dat lea das agibeaivve
Ja buorre lea dat vai gearggat don ge
Guovdo joga šattai muorra,
orui boastut muhto nu šattai.
Nu lei dat sáhka

Jorri čalmmit, jorri čalmmit čuvvot mu
Gonagas ii bisset daid
Gearggus dahje ii
Sii bohtet fáhkkestaga čihkosis

Twirling eyes follow me and wave without control
and fall inside me
and follow
who stole the gold so early in the morning?
On the soft side of the body is no one allowed to touch
Like flies and dry grass
They follow me and wave without control

Wonder what is that hairy
and full of blood now again
since it wasn’t that dog
that came from the war
being two faced doesn’t fit everyone
Only those who are not on earth
And they have other kinds of feelings than you

It’s not possible to forget
Just experience
and if you don’t remember then they will remember
It will be there for ever
And that is good, so you will finish as well
A tree grew up from the river
It seemed wrong, but it happened so
That’s the way it went

Twirling eyes, twirling eyes follow me
The king can’t stop them
Ready or not
They will come suddenly from their hiding place
