Excerpt:
Kan du glemme gamle Norge?
Aldri jeg dig glemme kan,
BeenMed de stoite klippeborge
Du er min fedres land
(traditional)
Lyrics:
How can you forget old Norway,
Land of rock and narrow fjord,
Where the mountains are like castles
Stand like sentinels on guard?
How can you forget old Norway,
Land of everlasting fame?
Can you ever find another
With so glorious a name?
How can you forget old Norway
and its narrow fjords so grand,
In and out between the mountains?
'Tis my own, my native land.
(trans. unknown)
