English translation
From the neighbour's the polka rhythm was calling
The bottoms of my feet were tingling
Eva's mother was guarding her daughter,
But Eva managed to fool her
For no forbiddance will stand in our way,
When we dance all around
Eva's mouth was smiling widly,
As people were congratulating her
Everyone's head was wet from sweat
And the violin whined and wailed
This gal doesn't care for being modest,
As she whirls all around
Eva's mother was in her chambers,
muttering a psalm to herself
As this lad was at the neighbour's
Nailing the old hag's daughter
For this lad isn't bothered by old hags
As he whirls all around
There was fun after the music
I made it flame up once
As we went home this hag had a row
And Eva started sobbing
I said to Eva, don't mind it,
We'll still whirl all around
To the mother I said, so she would shut up,
I can't guarantee your health
You'll get to keep it by holding your tongue
And go away to sulk by yourself
This gal doesn't care for modesty,
When old hags drudge all around
I'll say this, that you'll have to work
For you can't get me so easily
You may go from west to east,
Still I won't let go of Eva
For this gal doesn't care for modesty,
As he dances all around
i'm on a mission to hear all Ievan Polkka songs ever created. :D
I stick to Tuuletar's versions, that's pretty much all we need.
Same bruh, same
The same 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm about a dozen versions deep. Now I want to know where the song came from.
Same here...for atleast tonight
This is the best "choose your warrior" screen I've ever seen
Yoooooo wtf that was creative mate. Funny because it's true hahahaha imagine how sick would be the game
Lmao that game would be awful
the blue one, thats the hot one
I have ZERO idea why I can't stop listening to this song in all of it's many versions. I can't understand a word, but the tune is absolutely infectious. I will be humming it for the next 5 hours now, I'm sure.
Tell me about it. My football team, Stabæk played a match in Finland and while playing a video for the fans on the bus going to Finland, they played this song in the background. I just had to get it immediately, so I contacted Ubuntu Finland and asked them what it was, but they didn't know, so they used their networks and someone's mother recognized it. Finally, I got the CD, but then I was hooked so I had to learn how to sing it even though I can't speak a word of Finnish. Once I had that nailed according to Finnish people I came to meet and present it to, I had to make guitar for it. Now I can play my own version and people say it's perfectly intelligible, but I still have no clue what I'm singing about.
It's amazing how hooked you can get on this thing. I started in 2009, I think. What is it now, 2035 or something? :)
I feel you, worse than drugs XD
I made my wife and daughter do this song for our anniversary...I fell in love with my wife all over again
2 years later, this is still me 😂
Why is it the exact same for me
I must have watched their previous take on this several dozen times now. I don't know what it is about Ievan Polkka, but I love hearing the variations and emotions that come out in this song :)
Its about dancing because the music is so good, even if grandma says no.
A boy has his eye on Ieva, a girl with a strict mother. To the mother's chagrin, they dance and canoodle at this house party where everyone is getting turnt dancing to polka
@@georgeaugustogarciabehaker8660 do you really think that matters, a year after i commented. Translations vary, and don't really matter if you're dancing.
Every-time I hear this song, I get goosebumps, and I don’t even speak Finnish.. You ladies are simply amazing! 👏 Bravo!
PERKELE! Om kunde jag gilla det här 3 gånger, då skulle jag göra det! Tack flickor! Bra gjort! Och nu jag lysnar på er och vill tansa. Den bästa versionen den som har jag hört!
I don't understand a single word, but I've watched them sing this song at least 20 times already. SO GOOD!
Finally.. I´m so glad, there are subtitles now.. So I can don´t undertstand what I hear AND don´t understand what I read at the same time! :-D
I LOVE this but loved your original more. Don't be anything but YOU when on RUclips. Raw and real. You are so special and powerful!
Feminism kills.
From Bilal Göregen with the dancing cat, suddenly addicted to Finish music,
Greetings from Estonia
suggest me some finnish songs.
Same here. Greetings from Brazil
I started listening to the Ievan Polkka after my dad showed be a video of Donald Trump dancing to it, Joe Biden replacing Bilal Gorgen and a vibing cat singing this on Facebook.
@@mostofaarafatislam456 What genre you wanna listen to
@@sankari6114 Recommend me some! I'm honestly into any catchy songs like this one, pop? hiphop? anything will do! :-)
You all sound incredible. I'm so glad to have stumbled upon your music and am now a big fan. Listening to your music and watching you perform brings a big smile to my face.
It’s so satisfying when y’all sing “hilijalleen” for some reason
Dude, you're wrong. the whole song is satisfying
@@emharmanos7845 yeah but like, hilijalleen is especially satisfying. Also some other words like voevotti
@@falpsdsqglthnsac And the "alako nyyhkyytteek" part
@@falpsdsqglthnsac Hilijalleen = Hiljalleen = Slowly , Voevotti = Voivotti/vaikeroi - Conplaining/ Whining. Hope you get the idea
@@Timpette you're saying i shouldn't find these words phonetically pleasing?
i watched the balcony video over and over. glad to find this came out just yesterday!
Finally a satisfying translation along with an amazing performance! Thank you so much!
Me: Yo, great, this one has lyrics!
Me later: oh
Exactly. lol…
Your mind will be blown if you just expand the video description.
Thx for the lyrics🥺i've been searching for real lyrics for months finally i found it💗❣️
Wonderful! Congrats! 👏🏼🤗
But i like the original one 😉
@@vumphreygaming3374 who doesn’t

Докажи
zdravo from Belarus , love your videos ,
You guys seriously need to upload more. Tired of waiting for more videos haha!
The whole song is probably just one Finnish word with inflection applied.
Bruh ..as a guy who's hobbies are languages ,I laughed so hard hahahha
Well it is sort of a short story or poem about a girl called Ieva.
I grew up speaking finnish as my second language untill i was 8. When I was 20 i tried relearning it and I can attest that it is impossible.
@@jimihenrik11 same here, but for me it was until I was 11 or 12, but now I've lost most of my Finnish speaking skills, I can still understand it somewhat.
@@roteberg1 i understand 100% of what finnish parents say to their kids, but adults talking only like 20%
You are my favourite new discovery. Love from Scotland 🏴
Love from Brazil. Found you guys on reddit and am already listening to you on spotify daily haha. Thanks for the good energy!
Ви чудові
I just discovered you and I'm sooook hyped already! Your cover is now my favorite ever 💕
I especially love the singer with the purple shirt and just how much ENERGY she throws in her parts. Everybody is so great aaaah. Thank you for making my day better!
Been waiting for a new version! Great way to end the year!
This makes me want to learn Finnish so much. So beautiful
Beautiful singing-this is the singing of Levän polkka I've ever heard. I've already listened this video about ten times in row,I can't stop 👏 well done girls! Well done!
The song is called IEVAN POLKKA...
@@mattileppanen3638 I know,I wrote that
I've listened to a lot of your music. I don't understand the language but I like your original style .
Lots of fun and wonderful voices with a couple of very dangerous looking hair styles thrown in too.
I didn't listen yet your previous versions of Ievan Polka but this one is brilliant, vigorous and beautiful
Asu Uuden-Kaledoniassa, Miroslav! Täälla on aamu, se saa minut päivän muotoon! Kiitos mesdemoiselles!
Psychiatrist: Every single dream has a meaning
My dream:
Your previous Ievan Polkka video is saved on my phone & I also can't stop listening to this version. I just love it how your expressions & outfits in previous & this video are so different & all of you rock them so gracefully! Previously, you were looking so feminine & totally ladies, and here you are, looking total chic & colourful! I also love how you appreciate your fans! I wish I can enjoy your concert soon!
красотки :)
I love that I have absolutely no idea what they're saying but am totally in love with the sound of the words. Music knows no language.

One take 😉
Привет наши братья финны от удмуртов!
Daaamn! Now i realise how much finnish is difficult. Greaaat song! Greetings from Serbia!
I used to know this song but I totally forgot as it was years ago so I listened to this and it helped me remember the lyrics! Thanks!
Really digging the fluorescent colours and the more aggressive tone these beautiful girls are coming with lately! Keep it up!
youtube проникает в мысли! У меня в голове звучала эта мелодия. И поисковик выдал Ваше видео!)))
Очень красиво, оригинально! не многие могут похвастаться таким вокалом! Великолепно!!! Браво!!!!
Girls that is awesome love you, love Finland!
Love you ladies! Merry Christmas from Nashville!Tennessee!🎅🏻🇺🇸⚔️🦅🌹🌹🌹🌹💘
I;ve wanted to visit Finland for the longest time for various reasons. Add meeting the ladies of Tuuletar into that mix. Awesome work ladies.
Can't understand even a world but I love that version (and the old one too !) Kisses from Poland !
Ladies of Tuuletar, I do not understand a word of it but hey, love your show, your joy, your talent and your energy. You rule!
The best even got better! The legends are now mythic!
Aaah I listened to this song from 2018 SO MANY TIMES
Tuuletar is amazing, and thanks for putting out this version :3
Один из самых впечатляющих каверов, который я встречала 🤩
I loved how you all sang in your older video and now I listen to this and it keeps beeing really amazing.
Молодцы, девчонки! Классно исполнили!
Well done, the girls did a great job.
Wau! Voittaisitte euroviisut jos osallistuisitte!! Upeaa!😍
Yes un the past video they were great so this Gonna sound more cool
Gorgeous. ALL of you. Thanks for sharing this. We need something to cheer us up. And I must confess, my favorite one is the girl with the blue/green hair. She's absolutely beautiful.
Lol can you imagine the person decades (maybe centuries) ago who was living their life somewhere in the middle of Finland who wrote this song, did they ever imagine it would turn into something huge and _worldwide_ in the 21st century?
Loving this quartet...... kisses from Italy
Memo to self: if ever in Finland, do not eat the mushrooms. Weird stuff will happen.
Wonderfully joyous! I love how you get into acting out the parts.
First version: Hanging out after a fancy meal.
Second version: Getting pumped up before going out partying.
Absolutely fantastic! The most beautiful and talented Finnish ladies! Greetings from Bulgaria!
Here we are again, Finnish - not a single spoken word makes any god.damn.sense - still... I find myself watching your videos 10-20 times in a row ... as in: originally, caught by the 4 pretty girls singing ......stayed for their outrageous singing talent!
My favourite cover, and of course the one on the balcony I've seen a while ago is also my favourite...
Greetings ladies Keep it up!
I really love your covers
Такие забавные финские женщины! 🙂❤️🌹👍
Your translation was what I've been waiting for. Finally!
The only thing I could make up from the subtitles was "freestyle". Love the vocals though
Omg, you guys rock!!! Now I have sudden urge to learn some Finnish. Greetings from Russia.
You did it again!!!! I simply watch the first version of this everyday! LOVE FROM BRAZIL!!!! You art travels far!
I've been waiting for this so long I recommended your first video until it got viral in my country "rakastan sinua" all
*The first thing I'm gonna do is go to Finland and marry a girl who can sing this ;)*
Got to be a deal breaker that one. No Ievan Polka no wedding
Good luck
@Archit misal wait what.....mother🤣
Every girl in Finland can. No doubt.
@@jyrkilehtinen9886 Really sure that every boy can do it do.
Come sempre, siete bravissime e fenomenali,,,,un saluto dall'Italia...😊😊😊
Sanotahan nyt suomeksikin että hieno veto!
Oh my God, it was so good and so fast
I love it, congratulations!
Greetings from Brazil
That's it. I've made it my mission to marry a Finnish woman who sings 😍
Had you understood the lyrics andthe performance, you would know that it's not you who marries (you are chosen and married).
I've watched your last version of this 4 million times honest, and I love it. I wish I could find a translation in to English. Love you guys xx
The translation is in the video description
levan polkka -2 days to go. im excited 👍😚
No material pleasures can go past the pleasure of hearing beautiful songs from beautiful people.
I'm proud to announce my finnish is on the level of "I can actually sing this song" :D
I love this. Hypnotic in a way. You ladies are awesome!
Alien : "What language is this ?"
Human: "Dude, I thought this was your language !"
I saw this a while ago, them singing from a balcony. It sounded like an important message that I didn't understand ("Tukkee Suus!").
But now... At last ! With the help of these lyrics, I can finally oh hell naw still don't understand one bit :p
"Tukkee suus" (tuki suusi) meaning "shut up your mouth". But "tukkia" means you can obstruct with hand your mouth or something. If you speak everything what you thinking. This is example, how hard language is spoken language.
It's some form of Elvish.
Omg im in live with the green haired girl. She looks soooooo powerful. Kisses from Brazil
I can’t not imagine the vibing cat and Akechi shooting guns.
Реально...,как Красиво... Красивые Девчонки...,Изумительные голоса... Всё Гармонично... Бравоооо...
Thank you so much!
Such a great band! Especially ladies in blue and purple!
From Russia with love
I'm listening to this song once a week, I dont understand a word of Finnish ....actually all I know about Finland is Janne Ahonen lol
I have to admit those subtitles are very helpful!!
Красиво !!! Привет из России !
I don't know what's up with this song, its so addictive for some reason. Great job, keep it up!
I think I still like the 1st one better but I still love hearing this
Welcome back again! Always great singers! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This makes more sense to me than most modern rap
I love it so much, I loved the first video and I'm so happy for this now. This song is so amazing in his own way and you rock it.

Nice translator 👍
You repeated "impressionante" twice. Since the word is the same in spanish and portuguese.
Still the best sung versi on ever. Loved it! And I'm so glad for the lyrics
You all look so different from your other Levan Polka video. Talk about change!
Ieva* :) it's not an L but a capital I.
Song was so pretty and cool. Outfits were awesome too!
2 am and i'm trying to sleep
neighboor above me: 1:20
Can we talk about how every version of Ievan Polkka is beautiful and iconic in their own way?
So true.. Such a fun song.
Gorgeous. The song wasn't bad either :-)
Wow! U girls are amazing! Soooo much love from Sweden!
