Finnish … “The Siamese Cat Song”

1950s, animation, cats, Disney, dogs, Finnish, movies, other cats, songs, YT,

December 26, 2009 — How cute is this?! Who knew Siamese cats sing in Finnish?! Here’s the proof! … Get your sisu on with this clip from Disney’s Lady and the Tramp, 1955.

lady-and-the-tramp_siamese“We are Siamese, if you please … We are Siamese, if you don’t please!”

Oomme Siamin rotukissat,
Oomme Siamin rotukissat.
Katsomme me kotiamme uutta taas.
Jos me täne päsemme, on rauha maas.

Katso, kuinka ui nyt tuo noin kehää vain.
Ehkä siitä herkkupalan minä sain.
Varovasti päälle sen nyt hiivitään.
Sinä siitä hännän saat ja minä pään.

Kuuletko sä, mitä kuulen? Itkua!
Siellä missä lapsi on, on maitoa.
Jos me kehtoon katsomme, niin ehkä on
Maitopullo myös se aivan verraton.

And for all you non-Finnish speakers, here’s the English translation:

We are Siamese, if you please
We are Siamese, if you don’t please
Now we looking over our new domicile
If we like we stay for maybe quite a while

Do you seeing that thing swimming round and round?
Maybe we could reaching in and make it drown
If we sneaking up upon it carefully
There will be a head for you, a tail for me

Do you hear what I hear? – a baby cry!
Where we finding baby there are milk nearby
If we look in baby buggy there could be
Plenty milk for you – and also some for me

lady-and-the-tramp_siamese_end_400p_90resNäkemiin! … Goodbye!
