The song is Erämaan viimeinen by Nightwish, featuring Jonsu from Indica on vocals. I've included the Finnish lyrics and English translation/interpretation on screen. The video shows the nature and wilderness of Finland. Enjoy!

My dad showed me the instrumental version of this song when I was very little, and my love for it has stayed with me into my adult life now. I guess you could say this was my first taste of magic. It's hard to put into words, but the instrumental *spoke* without a single lyric. This is the first time I've actually found lyrics to this masterpiece and I shed a tear. God himself couldn't have put better words to it. Bravo Nightwish, and thank you!

Fun fact: Jonsu = Leena Johanna Salomaa. Her last name salomaa is the Finnish for wilderness, the wilds.

If you still haven't been there, do it. Visiting Finland is definitely worth it. I have spent there 4 months during winter when I was studying in Oulu and then I went to Finland 4 times for vacation (two times to Turku and 2 times to Lappeenranta). And it has always been worth it. Grabbing a bicycle and just exploring the cycling paths along the lakes, or borrowing a boat / canoe and visiting a few islands. There was for example an island near Lappeenranta with an abandoned bunker from WWII and it was accessible for urbex. I also remember when my friends from Riihikoski near Turku took me on a trip to Rauma where we boarded a motorboat, sailed about 8 km to Nurmes island and until 3 am we walked along the island and searched for Geocaches. When we reached the westernmost part of the island, it was already dark, but we could see and hear the waves of the sea and that moment was simply unimaginable. There was just the island, the sea and somewhere faraway on the other side of the sea, hidden behind the horizont, was Sweden. Best memories of my life. So, if you can, visit Finland.

I made a transcript of the English translation / lyrics: Wilderness sleeps, and now, in my thoughts I travel over forests and slumbering water Lady Moon in the sky lights the night Painting the landscape, the shade of the North Is this a dream, or death in which I may return to the place where the embers already surrender under the snow As I step into the world, in the time of the wilderness The first snow fell twice Painted a picture of my soul This rugged beauty and infinite loneliness of my childhood's woods and skies That wistfulness echoes through this journey As dawn is breaking, the night tells its story Rugged is the beauty and infinite my loneliness That what the soul wishes for The grave of my cradle, the place of my grave is the Last of the Wilds Where did the others disappear The swamp witches, the maiden towers and the trees rustling in the shadows I planted a lily of the valley in the everlasting snow When the silence came I relied on the future The first snow fell twice Painted a picture of my soul This rugged beauty and infinite loneliness of my childhood's woods and skies That wistfulness echoes through this journey As dawn is breaking, the night tells its story Rugged is the beauty and infinite my loneliness That what the soul wishes for The grave of my cradle, the place of my grave is the Last of the Wilds
