The Rain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Satoi vain likaista lunta sisimpään,
Jätti sielun jäätymään
Tie laskee laitakaupunkiin
Voit kantaa vain sen minkä jaksat ja niin
Tarvitset ystävää
Ja kauan sitten unohtuneet kellot huutaa
Tulta kylvetään - siksi kellot soi,
Kun täällä tulta kylvetään
Kerran sammuneeseen sydämeen
Tulta lempeää sieluun haavoitetun
Täällä tulta kylvetään
Sammuneeseen sydämeen
Valloitit vuoren korkeimman,
Valitsit tähden kirkkaimman
- se paloi loppuun aikanaan
Hei, muillekin on käynyt niin,
Ja muita tarvitsimme
Kun eksyttiin kuin aallot murtajaan
Ja kauan sitten unohtuneet kellot huutaa
Tulta kylvetään - siksi kellot soi,
Kun täällä tulta kylvetään
Kerran sammuneeseen sydämeen
Tulta lempeää sieluun haavoitetun
Täällä tulta kylvetään
Sammuneeseen sydämeen
Mitä nyt?
Kuinka mä jatkaisin?
Mitä nyt?
Haavat mä aukaisin!
Mitä nyt? Kuinka jatkaisin?
- Tavataan ja mennään kirkkoon!
Mitä nyt, kun haavat aukaisin?
- Puhutaan ja rukoillaan kuntoon!
Mitä sitten jos taas yksin jään?
- Palataan tänne taas!
Me tarvitsemme toisiamme - ja tulta!
Tulta!
Tulta kylvetään - siksi kellot soi,
Kun täällä tulta kylvetään
Kerran sammuneeseen sydämeen
Tulta lempeää sieluun haavoitetun
Täällä tulta kylvetään
Sammuneeseen sydämeen
Tulta!
The lyrics of "Tulta" by The Rain speak about finding hope and rejuvenation in times of darkness and despair. The opening lines of the song talk about how November has left its mark on the singer's life, and how the constant snowfall has made its way into their soul, leaving it frozen. The only path that is left is one that leads to the outskirts of the city, where the singer can only carry what they can manage and the only thing they need is a friend. The chorus of the song talks about lighting a fire, a metaphor for finding hope and love after a time of darkness. The song speaks of how others have been in the same place, and how the singer needs others to help them fight whatever negativity they are facing.
The middle section goes on to elaborate on how the singer has overcome great feats, has fallen in love before- only to get burnt in the end. They've made mistakes and been led astray, like waves crashing into a breaker. The forgotten bells of the town now chime with an ominous tone reminding the singer of their past.
In the last section, the singer is asking themselves how to continue from the darkness as they've opened wounds in their heart. They realize they need others and the fire of hope to help them push forward. They decide to meet and go to church, talk and pray until they feel better. They know it's not easy, and are scared of being alone again, but they will come back to the fire of hope and the support of others.

Jäi marraskuu sun elämään
November stayed in your life
Satoi vain likaista lunta sisimpään,
It only rained dirty snow inside
Jätti sielun jäätymään
Left the soul frozen
Tie laskee laitakaupunkiin
The road leads to the outskirts of the city
Voit kantaa vain sen minkä jaksat ja niin
You can only carry what you can and so
Tarvitset ystävää
You need a friend
Ja kauan sitten unohtuneet kellot huutaa
And long-forgotten bells scream
Tulta kylvetään - siksi kellot soi,
Fire is being planted - that's why the bells ring
Kun täällä tulta kylvetään
When fire is being planted here
Kerran sammuneeseen sydämeen
Once in a dead heart
Tulta lempeää sieluun haavoitetun
Gentle fire to a wounded soul
Täällä tulta kylvetään
Fire is being planted here
Sammuneeseen sydämeen
Dead heart
Valloitit vuoren korkeimman,
You conquered the highest mountain
Valitsit tähden kirkkaimman
You chose the brightest star
- se paloi loppuun aikanaan
- it burned out over time
Hei, muillekin on käynyt niin,
Hey, it has happened to others too,
Ja muita tarvitsimme
And we needed others
Kun eksyttiin kuin aallot murtajaan
When we got lost like waves on a breaker
Mitä nyt?
What now?
Kuinka mä jatkaisin?
How do I continue?
Haavat mä aukaisin!
I opened the wounds!
- Tavataan ja mennään kirkkoon!
- Let's meet and go to church!
Mitä nyt, kun haavat aukaisin?
What now that I've opened the wounds?
- Puhutaan ja rukoillaan kuntoon!
- Let's talk and pray for healing!
Mitä sitten jos taas yksin jään?
What if I'm left alone again?
- Palataan tänne taas!
- Let's come back here again!
Me tarvitsemme toisiamme - ja tulta!
We need each other - and fire!
Tulta!
Fire!
Tulta kylvetään - siksi kellot soi,
Fire is being planted - that's why the bells ring
Kun täällä tulta kylvetään
When fire is being planted here
Kerran sammuneeseen sydämeen
Once in a dead heart
Tulta lempeää sieluun haavoitetun
Gentle fire to a wounded soul
Täällä tulta kylvetään
Fire is being planted here
Sammuneeseen sydämeen
Dead heart
Tulta!
Fire!
