I think it's a very beautiful song. A large woodland as my home, A roof of juniper overhead, I range the beaches, pass through alleys (??), I go below the glade edges, A large woodland as my home, etc. etc.
This is just wonderful. I don't know the language, but a translation says the gist is "I would like to fly like birch leaf / I would like to fly like a small bird". It's wistful but upbeat - a musical inspiration.
I like the album version better, it's slightly slower in tempo, doesn't feel rushed like this does, a bit. Still, an amazingly talented group of musicians, and this is a great song, with beautiful lyrics.
Suuri korpi kotinani,kotinani, korpi kotinani Päällä katto katajainen, katajainen, katto katajainen Rannat kierrän kujat kuljen, kujat kuljen, rannat kujat kuljen Ahon laidat alittelen, alittelen, laidat alittelen Lenteleisin kuin koivunlehti Liiteleisin kuin lintu pieni Vaan en oo lintu lentäjäksi Koivunlehtenä liehuvaksi...

Ooh... You find great singers and poets in Canada: Gilles Vigneault, Félix Leclerc, Mes aïeux, Les Colocs, and for the poets, Michèle Lalonde and Nelligan, and also Service you was a poet who write in English, but died in France.
@Dotadict0 Maybe Mari's quite fat, but her smile and her positive energy make her my favourite member of the band; and now that the other two are very busy with Kuunkuiskaajat (I don't like that duo, by the way), I pin all my hopes on her.
I don't ever remember sayting Celtic women are fakes. I was talking about the group Celtic Woman. As for the group, they are not fakes, but that group is definately a bit too theatrical for me. As for the history of Ireland, I know enough. I was raised in an Irish American household and I am a Gaelic Polytheist. And yes, I know the Norse have had quite the influence there, what's your point???
XD I know....I'm sorry. I actually enjoy listening to Varttina. Celtic Woman is made up of fakes... I just noted that because they are a group of women singing the traditional music of their homeland, much like Celtic Woman.
