@stenovitz We use it a lot here in Norway. I've sung this ever since kindergarden, so it's no wonder why people regard this as Norwegian.

@cherokee1370. if you want i can give you a translation - it will be a translation from the danish version (the original) but i think these too versions are pretty mutch the same =)
Although that listening to Sissel would be enough for anyone, maybe someone would like to know what the words mean.
I have made a simple translation from the original Danish text by B.S. Ingemann, 1850.
The melody is Schlesisk from the 18th century. (Poland).

Lovely is the Earth,
Glorious is God's heaven,
Delightful are the souls pilgrims way!
Through all the beautiful
Kingdoms on earth
We go to paradise with song!

This is absolutely beautiful. What is the title in English? A hymn in our church is titled Beautiful Savior and is not neccesarly a Christmas Hymn. How can it be possible that so much caring. love and beautiy be given to one so Beautiful as Sissel? This Hymn is one I sang as a child many years ago and still do.
God has given Norway and the rest of us a Beautiful gift.
