Valta
Nicole Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hiljaiseen huoneeseen
Tahdon hallitsee
Vastauksen katkaisee
Kaipaus vaikenee miehen ääneen, taas
Tunteen valtaa
Se vangitaan
Lyö
Kädet kasvoille
Tunnetko sen
Lupauksen nimen
Sydämen sanoin
Kaipaus vaikenee miehen ääneen
Tunteen valtaa
Se voitetaan
Se vangitaan
In "Valta", Nicole sings about taking control over one's emotions and desires. The opening lines translate to "A step arriving in the direction, in a quiet room, I want to control, the answer breaks." The singer seems to be seeking answers or clarity in a secluded space, wanting to conquer and take charge of their emotions. The theme of longing or yearning ("kaipaus") is introduced, followed by the assertion that it can be silenced by a man's voice ("kaipaus vaikenee miehen ääneen").
Nicole then sings about the power of feeling, which can be overcome and captured ("tunteen valtaa, se voitetaan, se vangitaan"). The chorus commands to "hit" with "hands on the face", asking if the listener can feel the "promise name" in one's heart. The overall message of the song seems to be about seizing control over one's desires and struggles with yearning, and taking ownership of one's emotions to be able to move forward.
