    Together for Norseland

    by trad
    In the dawn’s light faintly gleaming,
    Stand the ancient Norse land walls,
    And the land no longer dreaming
    Now a- wakes as morning calls.
    Though the winds are coldly blowing,
    Streets begin to hum with noise,
    And the sun with splendor glowing,
    Greets the land with all it’s joys.

    ( Chorus
    We’ll shout aloud, for we are proud,
    Our power is in- vincible!
    We’ll ne’er dis- band, We’ll always stand,
    To- gether for Norse- land. )

    The days are bright and growing longer,
    While the streets grow louder still,
    Children’s voices ever stronger
    Now are heard more loud and shrill.
    Maytime flowers spread their splendor
    Over Norseland’s ancient streets
    Men and women homage tender
    Everyone with joy repeats.

    Chorus

    When the day is slowly fading
    Twilight falls and brings release
    From the hardships of parading
    Evening suddenly brings peace.
    Tis the time for meeting lovers
    In the garden in the park
    While the twilight gently hovers
    Till it’s night and all is dark.

    Chorus
