Listening Guide - A Discussion Of The Album "Intimate Voices" With The Members Of The Emerson String Quartet: Introduction
de Jean Sibelius
Oi Suomi, katso, Sinun päiväs koittaa,
yön uhka karkoitettu on jo pois,
ja aamun kiuru kirkkaudessa soittaa
kuin itse taivahan kansi sois.
Yön vallat aamun valkeus jo voittaa,
sun päiväs koittaa, oi synnyinmaa.
Oi nouse, Suomi, nosta korkealle
pääs seppälöimä suurten muistojen,
oi nouse, Suomi, näytit maailmalle
sä että karkoitit orjuuden
ja ettet taipunut sä sorron alle,
on aamus alkanut, synnyinmaa.
Swedish translation by Joel Rundt.
O, Finland, se, din morgonljusning randas,
och natten skingras hotfullt mörk och lång.
Hör lärkans röst med rymdens susning blandas,
snart rymden fylles av jubelsång.
Se natten flyr och fritt du åter andas.
Din morgon ljusnar, o fosterland.
Stig högt, vårt land, som du ur natt dig höjde.
Den dag dig väntar, fritt och öppet möt
med samma kraft, med samma mod, du röjde,
när träldomsoket du sönderbröt.
Förtrycket aldrig dig till jorden böjde,
Ditt verk väntar, o fosterland.
English translation by Keith Bosley.
Finland, behold, thy daylight now is dawning,
the threat of night has now been driven away.
The skylark calls across the light of morning,
the blue of heaven lets it have its way,
and now the day the powers of night is scorning:
thy daylight dawns, O Finland of ours!
Finland, arise, and raise towards the highest
thy head now crowned with mighty memory.
Finland, arise, for to the world thou criest
that thou hast thrown off thy slavery,
beneath oppression´s yoke thou never liest.
Thy morning´s come, O Finland of ours!
