That was a very strange joke- if it was a joke.

Tuo oli hyvin outo vitsi - jos se oli vitsi.

Because you wrote :" Please... can someone translate this song?
Thank you very much! " and you did not give us the lyrics of the song.

Now I understand what you meant. You wanted someone to translate a song called "Matkustaja" into English. I missed the title of this discussion thread and I did not know that there is a song called "Matkustaja".

Well, you know posting the actual lyrics might just come in some aid, methinks. :roll: Unless of course a huge Egotrippi fan crawls out of the woodwork...

In the night
in the bus
one tired traveller
from misty window looks
change of the view
counts oncomers
as stops wizz by
knowing any of them
could have been the right one

From the station
hear the announcements
as calls you cannot escape
you once step on
you're always on the ride

Always underway someplace
wherever you end up
is halfway from somewhere
knowing it himself too well
there are things
so hurting and difficult
you cannot get by them with talking

From the station...

In the bus...

From the station...
"By the pricking of my thumbs,
Something wicked this way comes."
