Sovesang (Extended) from Sovesang by Anette Aga

Norwegian Lyrics:
Legg deg nå til ro, min lille søte pusekatt.
Sov nå lille gull, min god venn, nå er det er natt.
Morgenen kommer etterat du har drømt min skatt.

Solens varme myke lys har dratt til annet land.
Morgen bringer den tilbake, stor og fin og varm.
Morgenen kommer etterat du har drømt min skatt.

Månen skinner høyt gjemt bakom skyer fylt med regn.
Regn som synger på vår tak. vårt varme tørre hjem.
Morgenen kommer etterat du har drømt min skatt.

Alle barn skal sove nå i dette land vi bor.
Hunden sover ved din fot, og pus under en stol.
Morgenen kommer etterat du har drømt min skatt


English translation, with notes:
Lay down your head, my little sweet kitten.
Sleep now little gold, my sweet friend. Now it is night time.
The morning comes after you sleep, my treasure.
(In the unextended version, the kids names are mentioned in this verse.)

The Sun`s soft light has gone to a different land.
The morning will bring it back. Great and beautiful and warm.
The morning comes after you sleep, my treasure.

The moon shines, far beyond the heavy rain clouds
The rain sings on our roof, the roof of our warm and dry home.
The morning comes after you sleep, my treasure.
(We live in a very raniy town, and I`m very much aware that not every child has dry and warm places to sleep, so this is something to be grateful for).

All children shall sleep now in this country, that we live in.
The dog sleeps at your foot and the cat under a chair.
The morning comes after you sleep, my treasure.
(We have one very cuddly dog who want to sleep in the bed and and a very anti social cat, who likes to sleep nearby. When we sing this song we sometimes makes jokes and puts someone random under the chair, to spice up the lyrics).

Thank you for taking the time to read. <3
