I cannot understand a word of this song but it is sung so beautifully that it doesn't make any difference! Such talent. The rest of the world needs to hear this wonderfully talented group! Spread the word!!
as a german native with basic skills in scandinavian languages i have to say THE SIMPLICITY OF THE LYRICS ARE SO BEAUTIFUL, no translation can do it justice. beautiful arrangement, Katzenjammers!
Being a learner of Norwegian language sometimes I've been able to understand what they had been singing, sometimes I haven't. But the song and especially the voices are very beautiful!
1. The snow fell gently and stroked perkily against my window this morning when I dreamt on my pillow. 2. We dressed in scarves and mittons made so much haste to leave soon there were a thousand children's tracks out there Chorus: And we light our lanterns when the dark falls and when all the sounds are wrapped in cotton Yes, we light our lanterns when the dark falls Perhaps they'll shine untill the evening says goodnight
Anne Marit truly is beautiful. Well, they're all and one could start wonder when you look at their live performances, the fascination of the audience. Some just stand with half open mouth and stires and stires. It's not just the music.
I did not understand a single word but this is what I say here: I get the message! I found you and I am in love with your music, your vouces, your voices... I am enchanted 'cause you SHINE! And keep on doing it - you are megical creatures!!!
The video stopped 5 minutes ago, I think, and I am still listening to this song. It's in my heart, my head, it fills my space and I don't want to ever get out of it.
Es gibt kein anderes Lied welches so sehr Weihnachten verdeutlicht!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So richtig hram!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the sweetest song of this quartet. I´ve enjoyed it very much, many times, and usually hear it before I go to sleep. Thanks a lot, Katzenjammer.
It's such a shame that you hear Turid sing so seldomly. Her voice is incredibly unique and to no extent worse than the other girls'. She did a brilliant job and I'd pay metaphorical billions to hear her sing more often!
Such a beautiful song ...Amazing band, I was lucky enough to attend one of their concert in August 2011, cannot forget this moment ! From France with love !
It's a old Norwegian winter/Christmas Song, mostly about going out sledding and playing in the snow by day and lighting lanterns at night.. Very innocent 😊
Thank you all very much for translations! Have to say it again, beautiful song. Time to learn some Norwegian for me ;) @bertabrecht: You're right, I wouldn't like to hear it in another language. But it's good for me to have a basic idea of what's giving me goosebumps ;) So, thanks again for translations, folks =)
Jeg ønsker at dere kan komme til Drammen Teater en gang til :D Jeg kan ikke glemme dere konsert. Det var så spennende og fantatisk. Hils og stor klem fra Drammen, Norge :D
I agree with you :) We really dont need to understand so well lyric, but we can enjoy melody, is it right? And that's exactly that the rest of the world needs to hear this wonderful talented group.
Beautiful !!! Even if I don't understand more than three words that are similar in Dutch:-) And it's cool of the prince to play guitar :-) Our Prince Philippe would never do that.
3. First we dragged our toboggans up on a large hilltop then we whizzed out far on the fields 4. And then we ran up again Soon we were on the top again We laughed then, whilst we tobboganed, small and great "Chorus" 5. We have built ourselves a castle which we think became mightily fine with princes and a snowqueen so beautiful 6. The winterday is saying goodbye we have to go home now it is evening We see on the sky that the day is waning Chorus

I like how they have the Crown Prince of Norway (Haakon Magnus) on guitar. He does really well too!
Es gibt kein anderes Lied welches so sehr Weihnachten verdeutlicht!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So richtig hram!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Katzenjammer, simply adorable, even more in Norwegian!

I just came here by a random playlist. WOW.... what a nice song. From 1:10 this small solo makes me fall off the chair - Beautiful
It's a old Norwegian winter/Christmas Song, mostly about going out sledding and playing in the snow by day and lighting lanterns at night.. Very innocent 😊
Such a beautiful bitter sweet song. Even this old Grinch gets a bit misty eyed at this one :) God jul alle!
Som en skön pläd, en fin brasa och lite glögg :)

I don't understand a word. But it sounds incredible beautiful. The best part..is from 0:00 to 3:37. Wow.

I enjoy not having any idea of the actual words. I dig more of just the feeling. I'm sure at some point I will look up the translation.
9 years later! ☝🏻

First we dragged our toboggans up
on a large hilltop
then we whizzed out far on the fields
4.
And then we ran up again
Soon we were on the top again
We laughed then, whilst we tobboganed, small and great
"Chorus"
5.
We have built ourselves a castle
which we think became mightily fine
with princes and a snowqueen so beautiful

The winterday is saying goodbye
we have to go home
now it is evening
We see on the sky that the day is waning

Charlie Rackstead has an English version of this on youtube as well, Oscar. Search for: Charlie Rackstead - We Light Our Torches
How to become a non musician that earns the good friendship of people such as these!
Den er bare så smuk.

Funds? Private? No gotta be "FOUNDATION"!!
