about

“Ptrui”-äänteellä kutsutaan tyypillisesti karjaa, mutta Saatanan saalistajassa sillä kutsutaankin pahuutta symboloivaa helvetin hevosta ja mustaa maan matosta. Pahan syntyä arvuuttelevista loitsuista inspiroituneessa biisissä runolaulu ja vienankarjalainen joiku yhdistyvät Hanna Ryynäsen karjalaiseen kanteleperinteeseen pohjaavaan taianomaiseen soittoon.

The sound “ptrui” is commonly used for calling cattle, but here in Saatanan saalistaja, Fucking Predator, it’s used to call evil, symbolized by the horse of hell and the black earthworm. The song is inspired by spells about the origin of evil and combines runolaulu and Viena Karelian joik with the magical kantele playing, based on Karelian kantele tradition, by Hanna Ryynänen.

lyrics

Helvetin hevonen, ptrui
Pahan vallan varsa
Helvetin hevonen, ptrui
Mistä tulit, kuka sut loi?

Saatanan saalistaja!
Mene sinne mistä tullut oot!
Saatanan saalistaja!
Mene kun mä käsken, käsken joo!

Musta maan matonen, ptrui
Miksi suureksi rupesit?
Miksi kasvoit kauhiaksi?
Kuka sua käski, ken kehotti?

Saatanan saalistaja…

Piruko anto hengen sulle?
Perkele pahaksi teki?
Mistä paha tehty on?
Mistä synnytetty on?

Saatanan saalistaja…
