Juha Tapio poika

Select language to translate this lyric

The boy sees his father's features in the mirror
they were often noticed as a child
he felt pride when compared to grown men
The boy sees his father's gaze in the mirror
which he learned to avoid early on
from a small age the knowledge was already instilled in the child:
father must be pleased
The silence of years on his shoulders
Who can erase from the flow of time?
wounds from generation to generation they are passed
who will pardon when the work fathers
sons are drawn to sons? Who will have mercy?
Without hiding in the discouraged
a defiance that does not come to light
does not dare to come near another
in a place where one is punished
Keep the boy in your mouth or think of him as an aka
tears don't help in the world
saying back doesn't make you a man
now you stand there and swallow everything
The silence of years on your shoulders
Who can wipe...
