Ensiferum - Tumman Virran Taa - From Afar (New Song)

[Melchiz3d3k]

Above the grey wilderness ravens sing

Blood of this people melts the frost

See how the sky glows

It calls to us beyond the dark stream

(The) weak fall into the coal-black foam

While heroes go to the river's (other) shore

Through eternity the song rings

It calls to brothers beyond the dark stream

- By a Canadian who wishes he could speak Finnsh !

[AntonAdalsteinson]

above the gray wilderness ravens sing

gore that's frost melts

see how to cover the sky glows

it invites us to dark stream

weak sinks surge charcoal black

when the heroes come to the river

through eternity vocal rhythms

it calls the brothers dark stream.

Translated, don't know if it is right, I used google translate.

[nodeterin]

Yllä harmaan korven korpit laulaa,

Hurme tämän kansan roudan sulattaa,

Katso kuinka hohkaa kansi taivaan,

Kutsuu se meitä tumman virran taa,

Heikot vaipuu kuohuun sysimustaan,

Sankarit kun astuu joen rantaan,

Halki Iäisyyden laulu raikaa,

Kutsuu se veljiä tumman virran taa

[thebel89]

That is correct translation, right from From Afar booklet. Translator is Nelli Ahvenlahti.

These are official lyrics

[thebel89]

Above the darkened woods, blackened ravens sing. As flows the people's blood to melt these frozen grounds See how glows the sky how curve the heavens above us It beckons, calling us, to the lands beyond the Dark Stream Those weakened to the Darkest of Streams shall drown And when heroes those riverbanks will reach The sound of singing across eternity shall echo Calling our brothers, to journey, afar beyond the Dark Stream.

[Disturbed684]

above the black ravens sing korven

gore's this frost melts

see how hohkaa cover the sky

it invites us to a dark stream of the TAA

weak sinks kuohuun charcoal black

the heroes will come when the river

through eternity singing raikaa

call it a dark brothers of the power of the TAA

[PuoskarinRuoska]

I didn't find any "decent" translations of the lyrics so here's my own attempt in a bit more "poetic" translation: Beyond the Dark Stream Above the sable forestlands crows are singing "The blood of this people will melt the ever-ice" Behold how the firmament glows Summoning us to beyond the Dark Stream The weak lapse into the blackest of waves As the heroes step forth onto the riverbank Throughout all eternity the song echoes It summons the brethren to beyond the Dark Stream. Ensiferum FTW!

Lyrics:

yllä harmaan korven korpit laulaa

hurme tämän kansan roudan sulattaa

katso kuinka hohkaa kansi taivaan

kutsuu se meitä tumman virran taa

heikot vaipuu kuohuun sysi mustaan

sankarit kun astuu joen rantaan

halki iäisyyden laulu raikaa

kutsuu se veljiä tumman virran taa.
