I have been listening to my new Nightwish cd, Once. I am wondering though, does anyone here, know what the translation for Kuolema Tekee Taiteilijan is. Here are the lyrics:

Kerran vain haaveeni nähdä sain
En pienuutta alla tähtien tuntenut
Kerran sain kehtooni kalterit
Vankina sieltä kirjettä kirjoitan

Luojani, luoksesi anna minun tulla siksi miksi lapseni minua luulee

Sinussa maailman kauneus
Josta kuolema teki minusta taiteilijan

Luojani, luoksesi anna minun tulla siksi miksi lapseni minua luulee

Oman taivaan tänne loin
Anna minun päästä pois

Thanks, for any help.

Heya Fallen! Below is a simple copy and paste! I don't speak any finnish so I just posted first thing I found, might be mistaken....any finnish speakers around???

English translation of "Kuolema tekee taiteilijan" (From Nightwish forum)

Death Makes An Artist

Only once I could see my dream
Didn't feel the smallness under the stars
Once I got bars in my cradle
As a prisoner I write a letter from there

My Lord, to you, let me become what my child thinks I am
In you is the beauty of the world, of which death made me an artist
My Lord, to you, let me become what my child thinks I am

My own heaven I created here
Let me get away
My own heaven I created here
Let me get away
