  • Ieva's Polka info from wikipedia
    "Ievan Polkka" or "Ievan Polokka", (Savo Finnish for "Eva's Polka") is a popular Finnish song with lyrics written in the early 1930s by Eino Kettunen to a traditional Finnish polka tune. The name is commonly misspelled Levan polkka, due to the similarity of lower-case L and upper-case i in sans-serif fonts. It is also known as "Loituma's Polka" (or "Loituma's Polkka").
    Origin
    The melody of "Ievan Polkka" is very similar to Savitaipaleen polkka, and in South Karelia the Ievan Polkka is also known as "Savitaipaleen polkka". The melody is also very similar to a folk dance from the area of Smolensk in Western Russia, which is known as Smolenski gusatšok ("смоленский гусачок"/"Small Gander in Smolensk").
    The polka can be traced back to the Viipuri Province in the 18th century when the border with the Kingdom of Sweden ran west of the province. The number of Russian soldiers stationed in the border area outnumbered the locals for many decades. At the beginning of the 19th century collectors of Finnish folk dances and folk songs all mention that the dances in the area of Luumäki-Savitaipale were Russian dances only and didn't write them down. Locals who are well-versed in folk music agree the melody is very old and likely to have been known back in the early 19th century and therefore probably of even older origin.
    Description
    The song takes the point of view of a young man. He wants to dance with Ieva (Eva or Eeva in Savo), but her mother won't let him. They sneak away to someone else's house, where everyone is dancing to a polka, and dance all night. When he follows her home, her angry mother is waiting for them, but he tells her straight out that Ieva and he will be together no matter what.
    Language
    The song is sung in Eastern Savonian dialects spoken in North Karelia (see Savonian dialects).
    The Loituma version of the song includes an intermezzo of phonetically inspired gibberish containing only a few Finnish words; it is not part of the original song written by Eino Kettunen. The content of the intermezzo varies from one performance to another and is not listed on most lyrics. It is similar to scat in jazz.
    Popularity
    This song is best known from an a cappella performance by the Finnish quartet Loituma, first released on their debut album, Loituma, in 1995. The album was released in the United States as Things of Beauty in 1998.
    The song acquired greater popularity via the Internet in the spring of 2006 because of the flash animation "Loituma Girl," which starred the character Orihime Inoue from the popular Japanese anime Bleach, apparently twirling a leek and singing along to the song. For the cartoon, only the second half of the fifth stanza (four lines) and the complete sixth stanza (eight lines) are used.
    The song has also been sung by Vocaloid Hatsune Miku, whose version is more popular among her fans. In the music video she has a leek, just like the leek spin. Insted of spinning it she waves it up and down.
    Furthermore, mobile ringtones based on various mixes of "Ievan Polkka" gained a wide popularity among Russian and Commonwealth of Independent States mobile subscribers in late 2006 The tune is also the theme song to the Internet sitcom Break a Leg. it was remixed by DJ Basshunter of Sweden, DJ Sharpnel of Japan, and Beatnick of Poland; and a version of the song was part of a Ready Brek television advert aired in the United Kingdom. Also, some videos show a Farfetch'd spinning a leek.

    For anyone wondering, this song is talking about a boy who takes a girl, Ieva, to a dance. Ieva's mother doesn't want her to go, but eventually, she and the boy sneak out. After the dancing, they hook up. They go back home and Ieva's mother is mad and Ieva starts crying. The song ends basically with the boy telling the mom he loves Ieva and will not give her up. I basically stole this comment from someone who basically stole this comment from another Ievan Polka video in which the comment writer basically stole the comment from another Ieva Polka video in which the comment writer basically stole the comment from another Ieva Polka video

    English:
    The sound of a polka drifted from my neighbor's
    and set my feet a-tapping oh!
    Ieva's mother had her eye on her daughter but
    Ieva she managed to fool her, you know.
    'Cause who's going to listen to mother saying no
    when we're all busy dancing to and fro!
    Ieva was smiling, the fiddle it was wailing
    as people crowded round to wish her luck.
    Everyone was hot but it didn't seem to bother
    the handsome young man, the dashing buck.
    'Cause who's going to mind a drop of sweat
    when he's all busy dancing to and fro!
    Ieva's mother she shut herself away
    in her own quiet room to hum a hymn.
    Leaving our hero to have a spot of fun
    in a neighbor's house when the lights are dim.
    'Cause what does it matter what the old folks say
    when you're all busy dancing to and fro!
    When the music stopped then the real fun began
    and that's when the laddie fooled around.
    When he took her home, when the dancing was over
    her mother angrily waiting they found.
    But I said to her, Ieva, now don't you weep
    and we'll soon be dancing to and fro!
    I said to her mother now stop that noise
    or I won't be responsible for what I do.
    If you go quietly and stay in your room
    you won't get hurt while your daughter I woo.
    'Cause this fine laddie is a wild sort of guy
    when he's all busy dancing to and fro!
    One thing I tell you is you won't trap me,
    no, you won't find me an easy catch.
    Travel to the east and travel to the west but
    Ieva and I are going to make a match.
    'Cause this fine laddie ain't the bashful sort
    when he's all busy dancing to and fro.

    I'm finnish and "Ievan polkka" is an old finnish folk song. It's more like Savo dialect than karelian. I live in Northern Savo so I speak this dialect. (but not as strongly as in the song) Here's the translation:
    I heard the polka rhythm from the neighbour
    The bottoms of my feet were itching
    Ieva's mother was guarding her daughter
    but Ieva tricked her of course
    'cause the forbids don't disturb us

    For we will not be bothered by the bans then
    When we also danced from a wide edge

    And fiddle with that whine and butter

    Eve's mother in it's chamber
    The hymns are sung by a swindler,
    With this boy next door
    My mother-in-law was fucked
    And this is not disturbed by the mother-in-law
    Sillon ko lands on a wide edge
    Salivili tops tassels dots

    There was a flattery after the call
    I got fired once
    The house is full of this quarrel
    And Eve is already sobbing
    I'll tell Eve what's wrong with it
    Calculation even more broadly
    Salivili tops tassels dots
    You get drops slowly
    I tell the mountains to block your mouth
    I don't care about your health
    When healthy, you repair your bones
    And you mute about the roar of macaque
    This is not the case with tenderness
    Ko akko is crouching wide
    Salivili tops tassels dots
    You get drops slowly
    That's what I say to keep the bite
    I don't swallow that much
    Suat piston ite even from west to east
    But I will not give up Eve,
    For this is not the case with sobriety

    The song is written in heavy savonian accent and dialect that doesn't make sense to even some of us Finn's, so i'll do my best to crack it.
    Nuapurista kuulu se polokan tahti
    Jalakani pohjii kutkutti
    Ievan äiti se tyttöösä vahti
    Vaan kyllähän Ieva sen jutkutti
    Sillä ei meitä silloin kiellot haittaa
    kun myö tanssimme laiasta laitaan
    Salivili hipput tupput täppyt äppyt tipput hiljalleen
    From the neighbors sounded the polka rhythm (unclear, polokan could be polkka written in slang)
    The soles of my feet tickled (kutkuttaa could literally be excited, but it doesn't make sense.)
    Ieva's mother guarded her daughter (sounds awkward, but literally translates to that.)
    And Ieva was annoyed
    because we weren't bothered about rules then
    When we dance from side to side
    (gibberish, last word means slowly/quietly)
    Ievan suu oli vehnäsellä
    ku immeiset onnee toevotti
    Pää oli märkänä jokaisella
    Ja viulu se vinku ja voevotti
    Ei tätä poikoo märkyys haittaa
    sillon ko laskoo laiasta laitaa
    Salivili hipput tupput täppyt äppyt tipput hiljalleenb
    Ieva was smiling
    when people wished her luck
    Everyone's head was wet
    And the violin squeaked and (??)
    This boy doesn't care about being wet
    When he dances from side to side
    (gibberish, last word means slowly/quietly)
    Ievan äiti se kammarissa
    Virsia veisaata huijuutti
    kun tämä poika naapurissa
    ämmän tyttöä nuijuutti
    Ei tätä poikaa ämmät haittaa
    sillon ko laskoo laiasta laitaa
    salivili hipput tupput täppyt äppyt tipput hiljalleen
    Ieva's mother in the bedroom
    sang a hymn (huijuuttaa is a weird verb in some dialects, which i actually don't know if it even exists)
    when this boy from the neighbors
    fucked the hag's daughter (nuijuuttaa could mean anything from playful but rough gentle fun to sex, but sex is mostly the consensus here)
    hags dont bother this boy
    when he dances from side to side
    (gibberish, last word means slowly/quietly)
    (couple verses of complete gibberish)
    Siellä oli lystiä soiton jäläkeen
    Sain minä kerran sytkyttee
    Kottiin ko mäntii ni ämmä se riitelj
    Ja Ieva jo alako nyyhkyytteek
    Minä sanon ievalle mitäpä se haittaa
    laskemma vielähi laiasta laitaa
    salivili hipput tupput täppyt äppyt tipput hiljalleen
    There was fun after the hymn
    I got the lighter
    When we went home the hag started arguing
    and Ieva started crying
    I said to ieva "what does it matter"
    dance from side to side yet
    (gibberish, last word means slowly/quietly)
    Muorille sanon jotta tukkee suusi
    En rupee sun terveyttäs takkoomaa
    Terveenä peäset ku korjoot luusi
    Ja maat siitä murjuus makkoomaa
    ei tätä poikoo hellyys haittaa
    ko akkoja huhkii laiasta laitaa
    salivili hipput tupput täppyt äppyt tipput hiljalleen
    To the woman i said
    I ain't gonna guarantee your health
    You'll be healthy when you fix your bones
    and go to sleep
    this boy doesn't care about being gentle
    when he argues with women from side to side(?)
    (gibberish, last word means slowly/quietly)
    Sen minä sanon jotta purra pittää
    ei mua niin voi nielasta
    suat männä vaikka lännestä itään
    vaan minä en luovu Ievasta
    Sillä ei tätä poikoo kainous haittaa
    sillon ko tanssii laiasta laitaa
    salivili hipput tupput täppyt äppyt tipput hiljalleen
    This i'll say so you have to bite
    You can't just swallow me so
    You can go from west to east
    I ain't gonna give up Ieva
    because this boy doesn't feel shame (worded like "shame doesn't bother this boy" which i don't think makes sense.)
    when he dances from side to side

    Being from Denmark its fun to read the lyrics of the song while having them say the pronouncation, cus your (the Finnish) vocals sounds exactly like ours in the danish language. obviously theres a huge difference between our languages, but we have very similar tone to the alphabet it seems
