Lyrics:
Finnish:
1. Lontoo pauhaa radiossa, paarlevuu
Ketun häntä kainalossa, suur' on suu
Valhetta se suustaan syytää, iivanoilta apuu pyytää
Heittäkää vain luulot pois!
2. Stalin tuumii Moskovassa, "Nitševoo
Meill' on miljoonien massa, soromno"
Mut' Saksa, Suomi otteen otti
Miljoonista tehtiin motti
Siksi heitä luulot pois!
3. Suomen pojat rynnistääpi totta ja!
Ja mennessään he lauleepi Kaarinaa.
Nyt on pienelläkin valtti
Stalinilta meni maltii
Siksi heitä luulot pois!
4. John kun Iivanalle sanoo, "Ai lov juu"
Vanja apuaan anoo, "Velkom juu".
Mut ei ehdi vanha bully, välillä on Saksan tulli
Siksi heitä luulot pois!
5. Nousee suuren Suomen aate voitokas
Meill' on vahva kamerade, so ist das!
Saksa ryssää rynkyttääpi, Suomi perää pehmittääpi
Heittäkää vain luulot pois!
English:
1. London rants on the radio, parlez-vous
Fox's tail in the armpit, big is the mouth
Lies lavishing from it's mouth, asking the Ivans for help
Just throw your beliefs away!
2. Stalin thinks to himself in Moscow, "Nitševo
We have a mass of millions, soromno"
But Germany and Finland took a grip
Millions were made in to a pocket
Therefore throw your beliefs away!
3. The Finns are charging oh yes!
And while going they're singing Kaarina.
Now the small one has the advantage
Stalin lost his patience
Therefore throw your beliefs away!
4. When John says to the Ivan, "I love you"
The russkie begs for his help, "Welcome you".
But the old bully can't make it, in between there's the German toll
Therefore throw your beliefs away!
5. The victorious idea of a Greater Finland is rising
We have a strong kamerade, so ist das!
Germany is thumping the russkies, Finland is softening the rear
Just throw your beliefs away!

[@karelianguy9917]

"Saksa Suomi-otteen otti, miljoonista tehtiin motti"
Word "ote" translates straight to grip, but it can also mean doing something in a certain way. I think that in this song germany "Suomi ote/finnish grip" refers to a siege of leningrad, as a motti tactics were used wery succesfully during winter war

[@karelianguy9917]

As my father says always "tee nyt perkele se homma ihan miehen otteella" - " Do that gooddamn job like a man"

[@likingraccoons]

ote means a firm grip. In regards to a fight, it means whoever has a firm ote/grip is winning. Thre's a connotation of repression/submission in the word of ote when it's used to describe a conflict.

More realistic than pessimistic usually. Though this song is extremely unrealistically positive, even for a propaganda piece.

[@mikitz]

Alongside the text of the song, the Finns actually had a realistic chance of winning the war and gain even more all the way until Operation Barbarossa went straight to hell. After that, the positive vibe turned into straight out despair.

[@kallesirvio2695]

That's a theme in the song, 1:02 is from a finnish song called Njet Molotoff, and presumably 1:35 is also from a popular song at the time, I don't know which though. 2:08 is from the German song Erika.

[@kingoftheskies34]

[@Sarfanger]

I might be wrong but, i think better translation for "Vanha bully(bulli)" would be "old bull". Because for me and many other Bull was something that meant USA.
I think it became common thing during Teddy Roosevelt.
Bully doesnt really sound something Finnish would say and i think it fits better for modern day. But USA wasnt really seen as a bully during WW2.

[@A_Casual_Observer]

It's a reference to John Bull, a personification of the UK, which was used in the same way Uncle Sam is still used for the US.

[@dankaroor]

also, Teddy was one of the last people to use "bully for you" as a famous person sincerely

[@Takeshi357]

Another thing is the statement "throw your beliefs away" means something completely different. "Luulot pois" refers to knocking someone down a peg, ie. they believe in themselves a little too much. Also I think "softening the rear" basically means spanking.
It's another one of those things where the person who translated the lyrics translated them too literally.

[@Suomalia2100]

Pocket refers to the encirclement tactics used by the Germans trapping something like 2-2,5 million red army soldiers into a pocket and forcing them to surrender and I guess the taking a grip means getting the upper hand.

Does Greater Finland just meaning a stronger Finland or referring to this: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_Finland

[@nippletwister9212]

I'm pretty sure it means Greater Finland as you linked in the wikipedia article. When Finland became independent in 1917 some people wanted the finno-ugric parts that were in the newly formed Soviet union to be part of Finland instead. Google "Heimosodat". This however failed but nationalist groups such as the AKS (akateemien karjala-seura) still kept the idea. So when Finland was later attacked by the Soviets in 1940 and the subsequent Continuation war 1941 these ideas were still there.

It's sort of ironic that in reality it was Hitler who ran out of patience. The Soviet Union was growing stronger and stronger, while Germany was getting weaker and weaker, so Hitler had no choice but to launch the invasion of the USSR, despite gross deficiencies especially in logistics.

[@herrakaarme]

@@Teemustaja Germany was losing airplanes all the time in the war against the UK, and on the other hand they had difficulties importing raw materials and oil. The USSR, however, had all the raw materials one might ever need and factories producing more vehicles than Hitler could predict in his worst nightmares.

[@vittoriovenetov9655]

He invaded the USSR before the USSR invaded him. Stalin had plans made to invade western Europe by 1942.

[@herrakaarme]

@@vittoriovenetov9655 Stalin was in no hurry. He could gleefully observe Germany, France, and the UK, the USSR's worst opponents in Europe, spend their strength fighting each other. After France fell, Germany was supposed to occupy the UK. From Stalin's point of view, that would require a whole lot of effort and resources from Germany. While a land attack never materialised, Germany still lost no end of airplanes against the UK.
Stalin had absolutely nothing to lose by waiting. Unfortunately that made him so eager to wait that he refused to believe Germany was preparing to attack the USSR before Stalin wanted the war to happen.

@@garik64 greater finland was only thw whole of karelia not to the urals and finland was co-belligerent not allied they only had the same enemy
