SOFIA JANNOK - ÁRVAS (Official) - Video
PUBLISHED:  Apr 24, 2015
DESCRIPTION:
I changed the snow scooter for a real nice Cadillac and drove up north to the centre of Sápmi. Picked up my great music brothers on the way and had lots and lots of fun playing on the huge lake Durdnos (Torneträsk) an early spring day in 2009.
The song Árvas (Tundra of Arvas) is actually about my own hoods with the same name, I sing of my beloved home and all the specific places me and my ancestors lived at for ages. Come along. /S

English:
Tundra of Árvas such a plentiful domain from the corner of one eye to the other wholly white a sumptuous sea
Árvas
From Lulličohkká we go north cross the sea of Sieidevárri through Niehtá and the valleys to Árvas
Our corral is in Durbbonjávri next to Gáisá and Bálggesnjunni
Hearraláhku to the turf huts in Bárkái
Heed yourself on Heaikkabákti avoid stumbles in the fog the hallowed char draw you to Rissajávri
Liigas held a dwelling grandmother played in the field it is left abandoned we took home the sleds
