In these past few days, it seems as though Norway has gotten a new National anthem. Ole Paus wrote the music and lyrics, and several performers have been singing it, to great comfort in these days of grieving. I have made an attempt to translate it. It doesn\u00b4t sound as good when you loose the rhyms, but hopefully you\u00b4ll get an impression of the pictures presented. Here you can hear the song, sung by Maria Mena. <\/a> Or watch it with this news-collage <\/a>from the past days.<\/p>\n
