[HANASHIR:12313] Hafinjan - lyrics question.



I am working on a translation of this song (for no particular reason, other 
than than I felt 
like it ... )

Can anyone tell me exactly what a finjan looks like?

Someone said "finjan" is originally a Russian word, can anyone comment on this?

and ... exactly what is being described by the lines:  "Soveiv lo, soveiv 
hafinjan"?  ... 
what is going around, and how?

Thanks for your help, as always,

- Ros
