    "The album «Máizan-Thaw» shows my sami background from a new side, where the traditional, mythical and modern are mixed. Through this album my inner life as a sami girl in the city has manifested. The roots and longing for the nature is present, but at the same time I am drawn towards the urban. The ice i my debutalbum "Jiknon musihkka-Frozen music" (2009) is melting, and what is under the ice is exposed."-Elin Kåven


    Máizan (m'a:jtsa:n) Máizat bivaldit, liehmudit, loikat, suddat. Become less cold, get milder. To become warm enough for snow and ice to melt. Thaw (thô)

lyrics

Mu váibmu lea rahkadan gova dus
Duohkandahkko jus mieđihat
Mu dovddut leat hoigan buot eará eret
earret du
Mu niegut leat huksen du perfektan
Duohtandahkko jus mieđihat
Seamma jurdda, seamma duohtavuohta
Lea munno, de

dat šaddá duohtan jus boađát
dat šaddá duohtan jus mieđihat
Agibeaivi ii álgge ovdal don leat dás
Mu ruoktu balvvaid bajábealde
Guoskkastagas loktanan
Mu jurdda fievrrida mu ruoktot
Váilot don vai šaddá munno
Ii šatta duohtan jus it guoskka
Ii šatta duohtan albma áimmus
Agibeavi ii álgge ovdal don leat dás
Dahke duohtan
dat šaddá duohtan go don boađát
dat šaddá duohtan go mieđihat
Agibeaivi ii álgge ovdal don leat dás

My heart has made a picture of you
it becomes true if you agree
My feelings have pushed everything else aside
except you
My dreams have built you perfectly
it becomes true if you agree
same thoughts, same truth
it is ours, and
It becomes true if you come
It becomes true if you agree
Forever doesn´t begin before you arrive

My home is over the clouds
your touch makes me ellavate
My thoughts will bring me home
you are missing to make it ours
It doesn´t become true if you don´t touch
It doesn´t become true in the real world
Forever doesn´t begin before you arrive

We make the truth
It becomes true when you come
It becomes true when you agree
Forever doesn´t begin before you arrive
