Viina, Terva & Hauta

Viikate (in English, Scythe) is a Finnish metal band from Kouvola, formed in 1996. The band is known for its melancholic lyrics, drawing inspiration from Finnish romance movies of the 1950s and Finnish singers of the era, including Reino Helismaa. Their style has been variously described as "Helismaa-metal," "wire metal," and "death schlagers." The band began with Kaarle and Simeoni Viikate who remained the only members of the band until 2001, when Arvo and Ervo joined. The band's most well-known hits are Pohjoista viljaa (Northern Crops), Ei enkeleitä (No Angels) and Viina, Terva & Hauta (Booze, Tar & The Grave). more »

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Tuohesta suu
Tuohesta kylki koivun
Tuonesta tukanjuuret
Tulensa ammentaa

Tervasta puu
Tervasta syyt ja seurat
Tervasta ajatukset
Tervaiset itse oivaltaa

Jos ei viina ja terva ja hauta
Auta pilkkomaan pimeää
Hiillos hiipuu tuhka tummuu
Kylmä löytää kotiin
Kuin routa maahan
Tuhka tiheään

Niin metsä vastaa kuin sitä kynnetään
Turhaan kelo yksin kaatuu maatuu yksinäisyyttään
Niin metsä vastaa kuin pata kattilaa
Soimaamme toinen toista ja unohdamme tulta kohentaa

Viina! Terva! Hauta!
Viina ja terva ja hauta!
Hauta! Hauta! Hauta!
