Grønn grup laget en sang, vær så godt!

So! because I think it's really funny, Im going to post the lyrics to the song that my group wrote this weekend to address problems that we have been having as exchange students and the solutions we came up with. this song is sung to the "Hallelujah" melody! I will translate after, but it wont sound as good :)

Hvis noen død i hjemmelande

og du føler deg trist og svak

da får du lov å gråte hele tida

Da kan du gå til verstmoren din

og prater om de triste ting

da føler du deg bedre in i hjerte

Da ser du opp mot hjemmelen

Da lyser nordlyset på deg

Det er på grunne av mørketida

Mørketida, mørketida,

mørketida, mørketida.

Da gå du un når det er lyst

og spise mye vitamin

da holder du deg fisk og supersunn

Da er det sikkert ikke bra å

sitte mye forran data

og skype med foreldren ofte heller

Ikke Facebook, Ikke ofte facebook,

Ikke Facebook, Ikke ofte- facebook-

Hvis da sitter om ettermiddag

og gjøre bare lekse

da kan du gå og snakke med din lærer

og vi er her og vi er glad

å vi får være i norge da

og da singer vi sammen "heia norge"

Heia Norge, heia Norge

Heia Norge, heia Norge"

Cool huh? there is a video of my group singing it, so when I can get my hands on that I will post it!

Ok, translation, it wont be word for word because some of the words are indicating a word that we would say/write in english, so im adding the word that is implied.

"If someone died in your home land

and you feel sad and weak

you're allowed to cry all the time

then can you go to you host mom

and talk about the sad things

then you'll feel better in your heart

and when you look up into the sky

when the borthern lights light up they sky

it is a reason of the dark season.

Dark season, dark season

Dark season, dark season.

So go out when it is light

and eat lots of vitamins

so you will stay fresh and super-healthy

And it is deffinitly not good

to sit a lot before a computer

and skype a lot with your parents

Not Facebook, not often facebook

Not Facebook, not often- facebook-

If you sit (a lot) after supper

and only do homework

then you can go and talk to your teacher

and we are here and we are happy

and we'll be in Norway when

we sing all together "Hello (hail?) Norway"

Hello Norway, hello Norway,

Hello Norway, hello Norway."

SOOO MUCH BETTER IN NORWEGIAN! it sounds better and it actually probably makes more sense in norwegian too... it's just how the language is structured... :D i absolutly love this song of ours! it makes me smile everytime I think of it!

I'll do an actual post tomorrow!

Vi snakkes!
