Verse 1
The streets are filling with people
They don't know anything about us
You're waiting for me at the station
Maybe time will forgive me
I run the rest of the way
You're beautiful, as always
In your high heels
Chorus 1
You say: Tonight we'll walk hand in hand
In front of people
Don't you mind the others' stares
Because we're together
They don't know anything, they don't belong in this story
That's read to the few
Verse 2
The streets are filling with sounds
Someone shouts after us
You're the stronger one
With you I don't fear the city's darkness
When we're in a crowd
You hold on tighter
My fear disappears
Chorus 2
Because tonight we'll walk hand in hand
In front of people
Don't you mind the others' stares
Because we're together
They don't know anything, they don't belong in this story
That's read to the few
Outro
This is read to the few
They don't know anything, they don't belong in this story
That's read to the few

harvoilleto the few / for the rare ones

Harvoille is the allative plural form of harva, meaning 'few' or 'rare'. It's a less common word than 'many' or 'all', making it stand out.

In the song, the line "Joka harvoille luetaan" (Which is read to the few / for the rare ones) suggests a secret, intimate story shared only between the lovers, away from the judgment of others. This creates a sense of exclusivity and deep connection, making it a very enticing word for a learner.

Have you ever felt like your love story was a secret, something special that the rest of the world just wouldn't understand? Jenni Vartiainen's powerful song, "Ihmisten Edessä," which means "In Front of People," captures this exact feeling. It tells the story of two people meeting in a bustling city, deciding to finally show their affection openly. The key moment is a simple but brave decision: "This evening we'll walk hand in hand / In front of people."

This isn't just a romantic walk. The lyrics hint at a challenge, as someone shouts at the couple and they face the stares of the crowd. It's a song about courage and finding strength in your partner. When one person feels afraid, the other holds their hand tighter, making the fear disappear. It's a beautiful anthem about being proud of who you love, no matter what anyone else thinks, because their story is a special one, *"which is read to few."
