1981, Gösta Sundqvist, Bruno Korpela (arranger) (lyrics and music), “Sinisilmä mansikkasuu”, performed by Leevi and the Leavings:En välitä mä muista jos et minusta sä huoli
Ei mikään ole silloin enää kohdallaan
On elämästä näkyvissä pelkkä nurja puoli
Kun maailmalle askeleeni johtaa- I won't care about others if you won't care for me
Nothing would ever be right again
Only the wrong side of my life would be seen
As I head out to the wide world
Declension
