Tuomittuna kulkemaan [English translation]

[Vesa-Matti]

I rose with the sun

Following the shoreline of the sea

I gazed at infinity

And I almost felt something

Lovers walk again

Hand in hand under the trees

I saw them find

What I went without

[Chorus]

I’m condemned to roam

Beyond this corner and to the next

The beautiful city, filled with lights,

Is to me but a shadow of something else

[Samuli]

The heart hears the mind's voice

Seemingly with fondness

Still, it's not content

Why? I don’t know myself

It’s something to wait for

If it can be found here

I know that it is hardly

Worth my longing

[Together]

I’m condemned to roam

Beyond this corner and to the next

The beautiful city, filled with lights,

Is to me but a shadow of something else
