Basically the song is about Ieva going dancing (and her mother is watching over her) and the song is from the point of view of a man that is into Ieva haha!

This is too funny - but yes, there's a lot of subtext in Finnish. Like you can't just straight up translate - you gotta get the feeling.

"Ievan sounds more Russian to me" sounds legit in retrospect, because eastern Finland is closer to Russia than western Russia

One of my fav song of all time and I hardly speak 3 words of Finnish.

Thanks for showing your struggles. Difficult dialects just appear in every language, and I do appreciate your learning attitude which also inspires me not to give up. 🔥

Leek spin/Ievan polkka was such a huge part of my teenager time, we used to play it constantly. It's really cool to learn what it was actually about all these years later. Thank you! Also I can't help but be a little jealous, your apartment looks super cool :P Don't worry about struggling with dialects, it's perfectly normal in languages with such huge variation and I'm sure even trained experts might struggle with the more elusive words. I loved the video and it's much appreciated!

Historically both Finnish and Karelian have gone through a sound change where the original long 'ee' has become a diftong 'ie'. You can see this especially when you compare with Estonian:
