Happy Birthday Finland! Today it's been 100 years since Finland declared its independence. I'm so proud to be Finnish and very thankful for the veterans who defended our independence against Russia in Winter War (talvisota) and Continuation War (jatkosota).
This short and simple video has - for the first time on this channel - Finnish song with Finnish lyrics. The film used is the 2017 version of The Unknown Soldier (Tuntematon sotilas in Finnish). It's based of the book of the same name and it's actually third film version. It tells the story of the Continuation War. The characters are fictional, the war isn't.
Eli hyvää itsenäisyyspäivää uusimman Tuntemattoman sotilaan ja Haloo Helsingin säestämänä!

Below you can find the lyrics translated to English by me. The translation isn't the best but you'll probably get the idea of the song :'D
"When the lights go out you see it all
When the lights go out you stay awake
You close your eyes and breath in
You’re going to make it
Someone took your strenght even though you shouted no
This is highway of madness
You open your eyes and breath out
Maybe tomorrow you will understand
You’re still alive!"
