I took a crack at it. Probably not a perfect translation, and it walks between the line of direct translation and easily sung translations. I'm also not a learned translator, but I speak both finnish and english fluently so it's doable to me. Some notes marked with * are at the end! [VERSE 1] through the forests and the ravaged fields gas stations that died standing in the 90's I'm driven by a feverish heart hair tussled by the wind, I lost my way but I can't stop, I continue searching for beauty so demands a feverish heart [CHORUS] dreamy castle, dreamy land*, do they even exist what if my road doesn't lead there paradise, shangri-la, hidden land of luck what if my way doesn't meet heaven [VERSE 2] along the highway i find the most beautiful flower but what could I yet find behind the next turn so asks a feverish heart I sing over** the old car radio maybe I'll find my destination, I'll make up with my past and I'll tame my feverish heart [CHORUS] dreamy castle, dreamy land*, do they even exist what if my road doesn't lead there paradise, shangri-la, hidden land of luck what if my way doesn't meet heaven [BRIDGE] I must believe in a place with no storms where I don't have to shout I must believe in a place with only love nothing else [CHORUS] dreamy castle, dreamy land*, do they even exist what if my road doesn't lead there paradise, shangri-la, hidden land of luck what if my way doesn't meet heaven dreamy castle, dreamy land*, do they even exist what if my road doesn't lead there paradise, shangri-la, hidden land of luck what if my way doesn't meet heaven * the most accurate translation would be "fairytale castle, fairytale land" but it's a bit of a mouthful and dreamy has the same mental image ** this would more accurately be "I sing competitively against the car radio" but once again it's hard to make it sound quite as snappy so I went with singing over the radio
