"Sydän rakastaa" is fine track from Anita Hirvonen's eponymous album released in 1977. This album was released in CD -form in the 90's and it's possible that the version we present here is re-recorded for that album. Anyhow, it's an enchanting love song and Anita's performance is one of her best. The touching lyrics are by Chrisse Johansson. The original song was called "Amor con amor se paga" (Love's paid with love) and it was written and recorded by Ricardo Ceratto. Born in Santa Fe, Argentina, Ricardo was succesful artist nationally in the beginning of the 70's, but became known internationally when he moved to Mexico and developed an intense artistic activity, recording and composing tunes that were hits in Spanish language world. Later he turned to recording Christian music. We present here also the version that Anita possibly covered, namely the one by Jose Velez, recorded in 1976. Jose won the Sopot Music Festival in 1977 and represented his home country Spain in Eurovision Song Contest in 1978.
Updated on 10.10.2010: Replaced Anita's 1990 version with her 1977 waltz version.
Here's the triplet:

ihana illan hitaat kappale..tätä tanssis jortsaisi ja jammaisi joskus tätä sitten juhlisi Omia Kihlajaisiaan Kautta Häitä tämän tahtiin
This is Re-recorded as you suspected, the original is more "traditional" pure Finnish waltz and not as slow as this version, one of Anita's best songs in 70's
P.S. didn't cross my mind first, but if you're willing to hear original tune... here it is...
