Rhubarb Heaven

Fri Jul 3, 2009, 12:54 AM
Hello!

I've created yet another idea. I'll be also writing a serie of unrelated one-shot stories.

The series will be called "Rhubarb Heaven", and it is named after a song by finnish pop/rock troupe, Leevi and the Leavings, "Raparperitaivas".

Each chapter willl be named after a song. Very first story will be named after finnish pop/rock troupe Ultra Bra's song, "Minä suojelen sinua kaikelta" (engl. "I will protect you from everything"). Each chapter will also include a translation of the song, mostly finnish to english or english to finnish.

[link] -- There is a YouTube link to the song Raparperitaivas by Leevi and the Leavings.

Translation:

What do few years matter?
Or even thousands?
When the man has only brought pain, -
destroying their Earth.
If I could track a place faraway,
under an appletree.
There I'd take my girl naturefresh,
the sweet bilberry-lip.

reprise: Rhubarb Heaven,
where does it lie?
An airship,
will take us there.
And that Heaven,
is your and mine -
secret hiding place.


Rhubarb Heaven and a potatofield.
An airship takes you there.
And that Heaven,
is your and mine -
secret hiding place.

Rhubarb Heaven

Tiny settlement, our gardenlot.
I guess there's one for us,
since you've latched onto the crate,
and have been carried.

You won't need a hoe for long,
neither a rake.
When the standards have decreased,
and a withered strawberryfield

reprise:

Rhubarb Heaven and a strawberryfield
An airship takse you there.
And that Heaven,
is your and mine -
secret hiding place.

Rhubarb Heaven

reprise:

Rhubarb Heaven and a potatofield.
An airship takes you there.
And that Heaven,
is your and mine -
secret hiding place.

Rhubarb Heaven, -
an airship.
And that Heaven,
is your and mine -
secret hiding place.

Rhubarb Heaven and a strawberryfield.
An airship takes you there.
And that Heaven,
is your and mine -
secret hiding place.

Rhubarb Heaven...

Original finnish lyrics:

Mitä merkitsee muutamat vuodet?
Tai tuhannetkaan?
Kun on ihminen pelkästään tuskaa tuoden,
tuhonnut maapalloaan.
Mä jos löytäisin kaukaiseen paikkaan,
alle omenapuun.
Sinne veisin tyttöni luonnonraikkaan,
suloisen mustikkasuun.

reprise: Raparperitaivas,
missä se lie.
Ilmalaiva,
meidät perille vie.
Ja se taivas,
on sun ja mun -
piilopaikka yhteinen.


Raparperitaivas ja perunamaa.
Ilmalaiva sinne kuljettaa.
Ja se taivas,
on sun ja mun -
piilopaikka yhteinen

Raparperitaivas.

Pieni siirtola puutarhatontti
kai meille löytyä vois
kun on köyttänyt itsensä kiinni konttiin
ja väkisin kannettu ois.

Siinä kauan ei tarvita kuokkaa,
ei haravaakaan.
Kun elintaso on laskenut monta vuotta
ja kuihtunut mansikkamaa

Reprise:

Raparperitaivas ja mansikkamaa.
Ilmalaiva sinne kuljettaa.
Ja se taivas,
on sun ja mun -
piilopaikka yhteinen

Raparperitaivas.

Reprise:

Raparperitaivas ja perunamaa.
Ilmalaiva sinne kuljettaa.
Ja se taivas,
on sun ja mun -
piilopaikka yhteinen

Raparperitaivas -
Ilmalaiva -
Ja se taivas,
on sun ja mun -
piilpaikka yhteinen

Raparperitaivas ja mansikkamaa.
Ilmalaiva sinne kuljettaa.
Ja se taivas,
on sun ja mun -
piilopaikka yhteinen

Raparperitaivas...

kiitos faveista!
:iconhanzatre:
Juu, ei mitään. Jos olisin jatkanut gallerian selaamista, olisin päätynyt faveamaan vielä paaaljon enemmän, joten päätin lopettaa hyvissä ajoin. x3

Erinomaisia töitä sinulla siellä. o3o

Yeeees, I am watching you. All the time, everywhere. Even when you're in the bathroom. *hrrm*

In the darkness, up in the trees, under your bed, in your closet, under my constant supervision.

On siis jännää, miten onnistun tekemään tuon yht'aikaa useammalle eri DA:n käyttäjälle.
