IEVAN POLKKA - THE STORY The storyteller is a young lad, who has a crush on a girl named Ieva (a Savonian version of Eeva, the Finnish Eva). The couple wants to dance together, no matter what. It’s a story about affection and the importance of dancing. There is a sound of polka rhythm drifting from the neighbour (it might be Ieva’s house where people have gathered to dance). The lad says his feet long for dance. Ieva has her mother guarding her, but Ieva fools her and gets to dance with the lad. He’s saying: ”We don’t care about any restrictions when we are dancing all over the floor”. Ieva is smiling widely as people wish her good luck. Everybody has their hair wet from sweating on the dance floor, and the fiddle is howling and wailing. In the end the lad says: ”I don’t mind being wet when dancing to and fro”. Well, now Ieva’s mother is singing hymns in her own room (she probably didn’t like the idea of having a ball in her house). In the meantime the lad is wooing Ieva in the room next door (having a break from dancing). And the lad says that he doesn’t care about what any old women say as long as he can dance. ”We had fun after the dancing, and I got to canoodle once”. When they get home, Ieva’s mother is angry and Ieva starts to weep. The lad says: ”I told Ieva that it doesn’t matter and we’ll be dancing again”. The lad continues: ”I told the mother: you shut your mouth, or else I won’t guarantee your health. You’ll stay healthy if you grab your bones and have a rest in your room”. He also tells that he doesn’t care for being so gentle when he’s taking the ladies all over the dance floor. The lad is speaking to Ieva’s mother: ”I’ll tell you, you need to chew, ’cause I’m not to be swallowed just like that. (meaning that he won’t give up easily.) You can go from east to west, but I’m not giving up Ieva.” And he continues: ”For this lad doesn’t care for being too modest, when dancing to and fro”.

ABOUT Ievan Polkka (Ieva’s polka) is a song based on lyrics written in 1930s by Eino Kettunen and popular folk melody originated by South Karelia. The song was first recorded in 1937 but has since been covered multiple times, most notably by Finnish folk band “Loituma” in 1995. This version later became an internet meme around 2006 when it was used in looping flash animation called “leek spin The lyrics are written in strong Eastern Savonian dialect and tells a story of a girl named Eeva who sneaks away to a polka party. this is the original lyric: Verse 1] 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 [Refrain] Salivili hipput tupput täppyt äppyt tipput hilijalleen [Verse 2] Ievan suu oli vehnäsellä ko immeiset onnee toevotti Peä oli märkänä jokaisella ja viulu se vinku ja voevotti Ei tätä poikoo märkyys haittaa Sillon ko laskoo laiasta laitaan [Refrain] Salivili hipput tupput täppyt äppyt tipput hilijalleen [Verse 3] Ievan äiti se kammarissa virsiä veisata huijjuutti Kun tämä poika naapurissa ämmän tyttöä nuijjuutti Eikä tätä poikoo ämmät haittaa Sillon ko laskoo laiasta laitaan [Refrain] Salivili hipput tupput täppyt äppyt tipput hilijalleen [Bridge] Hilipati hilipati hilipati hillaa Hilipati hilipati hilipampaa Jalituli jallaa talituli jallaa Tilitali tilitali tilitantaa Hilipati hillaa hilipati hillaa Hilipati hilipati jalituli jallaa Tilitali tallaa, tulituli jallaa Hilipati hilipati hilipampaa Rimpatirillaa ripirapirullaa Rumpatirumpa tiripirampuu Jamparingaa rimpatiraparan Tsupantupiran dillandu Japat stilla dipudupu dullaa Dumpatidupa lipans dullaa Dipidapi dullaa rimpati rukan Ribitit stukan dillandu Jatsatsa barillas dilla lapadeian dullan deian doo Joparimba badabadeia stulla Laba daba daba dujan dillandu Barillas dilla deiaduu badaba daga daga daga daga dujaduu Badu dubi dubi dubi dejaduu Badaba dillas dillan dejaduu [Verse 4] Siellä oli lystiä soiton jäläkeen sain minä kerran sytkyyttee Kottiin ko mäntii ni ämmä se riitelj ja Ieva jo alako nyyhkyytteek Minä sanon Ievalle mitäpä se haittaa Laskemma vielähi laiasta laitaa [Refrain] Salivili hipput tupput täppyt äppyt tipput hilijalleen [Verse 5] Muorille sanon jotta tukkee suusi en ruppee sun terveyttäs takkoomaa Terveenä peäset ku korjoot luusi ja määt siitä murjuus makkoomaa Ei tätä poikoo hellyys haittaa Ko akkoja huhkii laiasta laitaan [Refrain] Salivili hipput tupput täppyt äppyt tipput hilijalleen [Verse 6] Sen minä sanon jotta purra pittää ei mua niin voan nielasta Suat männä ite vaikka lännestä ittään vaan minä en luovu Ievasta Sillä ei tätä poikoo kainous haittaa Sillon ko tanssii laiasta laitaan [Refrain] Salivili hipput tupput täppyt äppyt tipput hilijalleen and here is the English lyric: You could hear the beat of polka coming from the neighbors It made my feet titillated. The mother of Ieva was keeping an eye on her daughter, But Ieva did fool her for prohibitions don't matter When dancing to the full. (Nonsense;last word of this phrase means "slowly") Ieva was grinning widely When people were giving their best wishes. Every one was sweating And that violin kept screeching and mourning. Wetness doesn't bother this guy When going all out. (nonsense again) Mother of Ieva was humming hymns in the chamber, When this guy was verging the wive's girl In the neighbor. Wives don't bother this guy When dancing to the full. (nonsense) There was fun after the playing I once managed to grab her in my arms. When going home that witch was arguing And Ieva started grying. I told Ieva what's the matter We will fall across the board again. (nonsense) I tell the granny to shut her mouth So I won't ruin her health. You'll get away in full health if you get the fuck out And go lie to you base. Gentleness ain't bothering this guy When bitches are all around the place. (nonsense) I must say You can't swallow me without chewing. You may go from west to east But I ain't giving up Ieva, For modesty ain't bothering this guy When dancing to the full.

Also the fact that the soviets lost so many troop only to gain land, and not to annex finland, like was the plan, means Finland won the defensive war.
