Anyone? (Typos are possible, I just typed these straight from the CD booklet and may have made some mistakes since I was kinda touch-typing)

Yö - Oikee enkeli

Vaiti on, hän pimeässä miettii tulevaa
Niin voimaton on tuuli, joka purtta kuljettaa
Hän joka päivä toivoo, että saisi eksymään,
tuon erään joka varmasti saa kaiken särkymään

Vaiti on, on pimeässä aikaa itselleen
Suunnaton tuska joka maalaa sydämeen
Hän päivät raataa töissä tekee mitä pyydetään,
ja iltaisin tuo vaatii ihmeitä ei vähempää

Chorus:
Unelmissaan uskoo että joskus lentää pois,
kunpa höyhenensä siipiin pian liimata hän vois
Unelmissaan tietää ett on oikee enkeli
mutta eksyi reitillänsä ja väärän valitsi
Totuuden tietää, vain se on tärkeää
Katselee kun nukkuu pahan alku juurineen
Katselee ja tietää tuo on väärä ihminen
Kun ymmärrä ei miksei tyytyväinen ole hän
Ei ymmärrä ett kahlinnut on toisen elämän

Chorus x2

I must admit that I don't listen to Yö that much but there seems to be only two minor errors in the lyrics :)
Fourth last row 'aiku' -> 'alku' and
last row 'ett' -> 'että' but it could be right too. Ett can be used as a "poetic" form.

Want a translation?

F1x0r3d typo. Second is as written (it also appears in the chorus).

Yes please! :D

P.S. How are the Pratchetts?
P.P.S. Ever wondered about that bottle cap in the package? It's just the cap for a brand of ale produced in my hometown.

Right. I'll try my best (literal):

Silent he is, in darkness he thinks about the future
So powerless is the wind driving the vessel
He every day wishes, that could get lost
that someone who certainly can everythink go to pieces

Silent he is, in darkness he has time for himself
Vast pain that (is it really maalla? or maalaa?) (land has|paints) on his heart
Days he slawes away at work doing what is asked
and at night demands miracles, no less

Chorus:

In his dreams he believes that he can fly away some day
whishing he could glue feathers to his wings
In his dreams he knows that he a real angel is
but got lost on his route and chose wrong
knows the truth, that only matters


Watches as sleeps the evil with it's roots
Watches and knows that this is wrong person
While he cannot understand why he isn't satisfied
Doesn't understand that he has chained another life

There. Not as good as it could be but I should be going to bed. I hope it's understandable. Poetry is hard to translate.
The Pratchetts are good so far :). I've finished one and I've read one third of the second. I enjoy reading them and he has his funny moments.
I did wonder about the cap, yes :). I thought you'd put it in by mistake maybe. I meant to ask but the forgot about it. That explains it all, thanks.
