(Ole Bull/Jørgen Moe)
Arve Tellefsen told me that the melody to Seterjentens søndag was originally written as a march. When Jørgen Moe wrote the lyrics for it, he slowed the tempo down considerably. I hope you can "see" how beautiful Norway is when you listen to Ole Bull's music.
Sissel
På solen jeg ser, det lider alt frem,
Snart er det ved høimessetide -
O den, som en stund fik ønske sig hjem
Blant folk som på kirkevei skride!
Når solenskiven stiger lidt, så den står
Der midt over skardet i kammen
Da ved jeg, i dalen klokkerne går,
Da ringer fra tårnet det sammen
