Lyrics:
Sneen dalte lett og fin, og strøk blidt mot ruten min
i morgens da jeg drømte på min pute.
Vi tok skjerf og votter på, hastet veldig med å gå,
snart var det tusen barnespor der ute.
Ref:
Og vi tenner våre lykter når det mørkner,
og når alle lyder pakkes inn i vatt.
Ja vi tenner våre lykter når det mørkner,
kanskje lyser de til kvelden si'r god natt.
Først så trakk vi kjelken opp, på en diger bakketopp,
så suste vi avsted langt ut på jordet.
og så bar det opp igjen, snart var vi på topp igjen
så lo vi mens vi akte små og store.
Ref..
Vi har bygget oss ett slott, som vi syns ble stort og flott,
med prinser og en snedronning så vakker.
Vinterdagen tar farvel, vi må hjem nå er det kveld,
vi ser på himmelen at det lir og lakker.
Ref..

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.

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

[@artembondartsov104]

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!

[@wnkpc9561]

I like how they have the Crown Prince of Norway (Haakon Magnus) on guitar. He does really well too!

[@walterellermann7584]

Immer wieder brauche ich Euch um etwas wieder herunter kommen zu können. Danke dafür!

[@dfray]

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!!

[@zzy2620]

Katzenjammer, simply adorable, even more in Norwegian!

[@AlthoughDead]

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!

[@chuvarick]

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.

[@lecr1953]

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.

[@almagill]

Such a beautiful bitter sweet song. Even this old Grinch gets a bit misty eyed at this one :) God jul alle!

[@bertabrecht]

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!

[@Rodolph2012]

Endelig! Katzenjammer singer på norsk! Holde det.

[@lentevogel1]

+Rodolph2012 Ja! Madeleine

[@bethanyscarbrough3416]

I love that the Crown Prince of Norway looks like a Disney prince

[@buddhleterrible4925]

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 !

[@KRASIPARVANOV]

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!!!

[@blue_hikka8818]

Боже как красиво. Словно ангелы поют. Поднимает настроение и настроение прям рождественское. Спасибо большое за эту прекрасную песню

[@NaDannMachMal]

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

[@mullaoslo]

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 😊

[@schrodenKatzenjammer]

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

[@rip_lokum]

It cannot be more heartwarming than this, ladies.

[@kitspics526]

So very beautiful , thank you.

[@jacquelinewhiteley9437]

[@JoeyKneecap]

Oh wow. I'm crying. Thank you.

[@rip_lokum]

This is just gorgeous, and couldn't be more heart-warming. :)

[@Koelleimherzen]

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 =)

[@L10nel_M3SS1]

Beste versjonen🥰

[@LizVesper]

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.

[@hastwerk]

[@luterkonge]

Helt awesome!

[@schinkenretter5634]

Ich liebe diese Stimme. Geil. Geil

[@rogernygard1923]

fin førjul sang jeg likte den.

[@ashildslaen4652]

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

[@walterellermann7584]

Ich liebe es!!!!!!!!

[@SweetestSmile21]

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.

[@Caro97000]

norwegian is such a great language... and of course the girls are great too :D

[@scrumsie]

Amazing.

[@Nordlys_813]

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.

[@specksmacgruder]

Google Translate, Norwegian to English, using the lyrics posted in the header: The snow drift easy and nice, and stroked gently against my route in the morning when I was dreaming on my pillow. We took the scarf and mittens on, hurry really to go, soon there were thousands of children tracks out there. Ref: And we light our lights when it gets dark, and when all sounds wrapped in cotton wool. Yes we light our lights when it gets dark, perhaps lighting for evening si'r good night. (Continued)

[@Nordlys_813]

Yes, he is the Prince :)

[@ScandinavianRoyalty]

(Google Translation) The snow drifted nice and light, and stroked gently against my route this morning when I was dreaming on my pillow. We took the scarf and mittens, very hurried walking, Soon there were thousands of children tracks out there. Ref: And we light our torches when it darkens, and when all sounds are wrapped in cotton wool. Yes we light our torches when it darkens, might illuminate the evening to si'r good night. First, we drew the sled up on a huge hill, so we flew away, far out in the field. and then brought it up again, soon we were on top again so we laughed while we observe small and large. Ref .. We have built us one castle, which we think was big and beautiful, with princes and The Snow Queen looked beautiful. Winter day say goodbye, we have to go home now it is evening, we see in the sky that it suffers and coatings.

[@MattHaugen]
