This song was recently submitted by Jimmi Nelsonen, who wrote this song with the help of his twin 3 year old poikas who inspired it while singing in the sauna one evening: “Sauna Poika! Sauna Poika! Sauna Poika!” 

“Sauna Poika”

Sauna Poika, Sauna Poika
Hyvää Hyvää Hyvää Hyvää Sauna Poika
Sauna Poika, Sauna Poika
Hyvää Hyvää Hyvää Hyvää Sauna Poika

In da Sauna, hot & svetty
On da penki with my family
Liisa löyly, grab da vasta
And enchoy a Suomi Sauna!

Since my poyhood, I’ve been bading
In da Sauna, yah I’m naked
Now my vaimo, my jälkeläinen
Can enchoy a hyvää Sauna

Grandpa Mäkkinen, Uncle Kesannen
Cousin Teddy, my sukulainen
All enchoy a hyvää Sauna
And a yump in to da lake YAH!

Won’t you yoin us, in dis tradition
Of da Sauna, born in Finland
In da fresh snow, you’ll ko swimmin’
Yust to keep from over-heatin’!
