Welcome to Hel-sinki!
Did you land here quite unexpectedly?
Please, have a look around
It’s more pleasant than it sounds
Nice, clean, safe and poetic
Our small town of the idyllic
We’re way up North
But well while the worth
Of making a short trip
Even with a tall ship
So stay a while, take a look around
You may be surprised of what you found

The river snaking across the expanse
This may just be the promised land
Clear waters as far as the eye can see
A perfect place for the summer to flee

An upside frown

When staying a while
In the historic city
Of Porvoo
Listen to the poll
And take little stroll
Pick up a doll
And do a little dance
Take a chance
On the wide expanse
Of the historic streets
Of Porvoo

The old town of Porvoo
A home away from home
Flew there like a crow
Stated ,when in Rome…
Found the nearest cafe
Which was close to the bay
Enjoyed the sunny day
Until turn of eve
When it was time to leave
