Cyborg Posted May 17, 2005 Author Share Posted May 17, 2005 There is an English version, yes.It's ugly compared to the Norwegian version, though.Yes, we love with fond devotionThis our land that loomsRugged, storm-scarred o'er the ocean,With her thousand homes.Love her, in our love recallingThose who gave us birth.And old tales which night, in falling,Brings as dreams to earthNorseman, whatsoe'er thy station,Thank thy God, Whose powerWilled and wrought the land's salvationIn her darkest hour.All our mothers sought with weepingAnd our sires in fight,God has fashioned, in His keeping,Till we gained our right.Yes,we love with fond devotionThis our land that loomsRugged, storm-scarred o'er the ocean,With her thousand homes.And, as warrior sires have made herWealth and fame increase,At the call we too will aid her,Armed to guard her peace.

Cyborg Posted May 17, 2005 Author Share Posted May 17, 2005 We've been Norway since 1814. Even when we were in union with Sweden, we were Norway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
