Oslo forteller - No. 4

Jeg finner roen der alle andre er

Der det finnes flere mennesker enn det finnes trær

Lyden av trafikk er lyden av musikk, jeg hører hjemme her

Her lærte jeg å gå, det gjorde pappa og

Her har man vokst opp og bodd i over tusen år

En storby i en skog, innerst i en fjord, nesten seksti grader nord

Og i natt, igjen

Er vi alle under samme sky

Her er vi aldri alene

Vi sovner til lyden av samme by

Hmm-mm-hmm-mm-hmm-mm-hmm-mm

Sankt Hallvard passer på hele byen nå

Evig og bestandig skal dette stedet stå

Og det skal vokse og bli større

For alle nye små

Fins ingen lignende sted

Her vandrer konger i fred

Her bor det drager og troll og folk og fe

Jeg vet at det er sant, for Oslo har fortalt meg det

Og i natt, igjen

Er vi alle under samme sky

Her er du aldri alene

Vi sovner til lyden av samme by

Ooh-oo-ohh-oo-ooh-oo-ooh-oo

Vi finner roen her, her alle andre er

Vi finner roen her, alle andre er

Vi finner roen her, her alle andre er

Vi finner roen her

I find peace where everyone else is

Where there are more people than there are trees

The sound of traffic is the sound of music, I belong here

Here I learned to walk, so did my father

People have grown up and lived here for over a thousand years

A big city in a forest, deep in a fjord, almost sixty degrees north

And to night, again

Are we all under the same cloud

Here we are never alone

We fall asleep to the sound of the same city

Hmm-mm-hmm-mm-hmm-mm-hmm-mm

Sankt Hallvard looks after the whole town now

Forever and ever shall this place stand

And it will grow and get bigger

For all new little ones

There is no similar place

Here kings roam in peace

Here live dragons and trolls and people and fairies

I know it's true, because Oslo told me so

And to night, again

Are we all under the same cloud

Here you are never alone

We fall asleep to the sound of the same city

Ooh-oo-ohh-oo-ooh-oo-ooh-oo

We find peace here, where everyone else is

We find peace here, everyone else is

We find peace here, where everyone else is

We find peace here
