    Finnish is a language that is rarely ever tamed by foreigners. I am Danish, and I speak Russian, English, Armenian, and my mother language. I have been studying Finnish for two years and it has bested me thus far.

      Maybe because u've been learning only indoeuropean langauges (which all have simillar structure) so far and that's why u can't handle finnish since it's totally different.

    What a great treat finding this song was for me. It is a very powerful, deep and extremely poignant song; sung by the incomparable Anita Lehtola-Tollin. Her expressive voice and perfect diction make me long to have heard her singing live. The poetry and the violin music are sublime... they are a match made in heaven.

      Näin minä ihanan tähdenlennon,
      aattelin: yksinkö jäit kuin ma jäin,
      sortiko suru sun sielusi hennon
      keskeltä kylmien ystäväin,
      sortiko suru sun sielusi hennon
      keskeltä kylmien ystäväin?
      Taivaan tulikukka-yrttimailla
      olit kai pieni ja pilvessä ain,
      ehkä et loistanut muiden lailla,
      olit kai unta ja usvaa vain,
      ehkä et loistanut muiden lailla,
      olit kai unta ja usvaa vain.
      Pois sinä lensit avaruuteen,
      niin ehkä löysit, mitä sä hait,
      sammuessasi maailmaan uuteen
      kirkkaamman, kauniimman loiston sä sait,
      sammuessasi maailmaan uuteen
      kirkkaamman, kauniimman loiston sä sait.
      I saw a wonderful shooting star,
      I thought: were you alone as I was,
      Did sorrow oppress your soul so tender
      From the midst of your cold friends,
      Did grief oppress your soul
      Did your soul, in the midst of cold friends.
      In the herb-flower soil of heaven
      Thou must have been small and in a cloud,
      Perhaps you did not shine like the others,
      Thou wast but a dream and a mist,
      Maybe you didn't shine like the others
      You must have been a dream and a mist
      Away you flew into space,
      And maybe you'll find what you're looking for,
      When you passed out in a new world
      A brighter, more beautiful glow you've found,
      When you passed out into a new world
      A brighter, more beautiful glow you have found.

      Mostly formal, some informal mixed there, maybe to fit better in the melody and rhythm.
      It's also filled with a lot of poetic word order - a common feature in songs,
      for example: '(a) fair day' put to '(a) day fair', like English can do as well.
