Unissasi laulelet
The Dø Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Aurinko nousi hiipien
Oksalla syntyi varpunen
Heräsin hetkeks, unissasi laulelet

Peilille näytit kasvosi
Ja peili hymyn heijasti
Lupasit laulaa kovempaa
Rakkauden pensaan istuttaa

Aurinko nousi hiipien
Oksalla syntyi varpunen
Heräsin hetkeks, unissasi laulelet

Tahditon tuuli kuiskasi
Korvaasi maailman ihmeitä
Levoton tuuli uteliaan korvaan
Meren pohjan salaisuudet paljasti

Aurinko nousi hiipien
Oksalla syntyi varpunen
Heräsin hetkeks, unissasi laulelet

Tarpeeksi kultaa löysit kait
Kyllästyit merten pohjiin kait
Äkkiä usva hallayöt
Toivat maan päälle ensi jäät
Vaalean aamun poskessa
Taas laulelet

Overall Meaning

The Dø's Unissasi Laulelet is a poetic and dreamy song. The lyrics describe a beautiful and peaceful scene of a sunrise with a bird singing on a tree branch. The singer is awakened by the dreamy singing and listens to it as if it was a lullaby. As the song progresses, the lyrics become more abstract and possibly metaphorical. The mirror is mentioned and the promise to sing louder and plant a love bush is made. The wind whispers mysteries of the world to the listener's ear, such as the secrets of the ocean's floor. The lyrics end by describing the return of the dreamy singing, as if the listener is returned to the peacefulness of the sunrise.


The song's atmosphere is dreamy, and the lyrics don't follow a regular structure. Every verse is different from the previous one. The words create beautiful and abstract images that are open to interpretation. The lyrics also seem to contrast the beauty and peacefulness of the sunrise with the mysteries and secrets of the world. Although the song might be challenging to decipher, it is undeniable that the beautiful melody and poetic lyrics create an entrancing and immersive experience.

Wonderful things of the world to your ear

You probably found enough gold


Kyllästyit merten pohjiin kait

Äkkiä usva hallayöt
Suddenly fog and frosty nights


Toivat maan päälle ensi jäät
Brought the first ice to the ground


Vaalean aamun poskessa
On the cheek of a light morning


Taas laulelet
You sing again
