Kjære kong Harald, kjære dronning Sonja,
We are grateful for the way you hold us together as a people.
Vi er glade for at dere evner å binde oss sammen som folk.
We are proud of the dignified way in which you represent Norway abroad.
Vi er stolte over den verdige måten dere representerer Norge på i utlandet.
We are impressed by how well you know every fjord, every mountain and every town and village in your country.
Vi er imponert over hvor godt dere kjenner hver fjord, hvert fjell og hver bygd i deres eget land.
And we are still moved by the warmth shown by the Royal Family as they shared the nation’s grief after the events of 22 July.
Og vi er fortsatt rørt over kongefamiliens varme deltakelse i sorgen etter 22. juli.
There is another quality I would also like to mention.

You have also set an example as parents.
Også som foreldre har dere gått foran.
The King and the Queen have shown in action, not just in words, that it is the children’s best interests that must come first.
Kongen og dronningen har i gjerning vist at barnas beste teller mest.
The King’s decision to agree to Crown Prince Haakon’s wish to marry Mette Marit in 2001 turned a leaf in Norway’s history, and opened a door to the future.
Kongens ja til kronprins Haakon og hans Mette Marit i 2001 vendte et historisk blad, og åpnet en dør til fremtiden.

Slik ble dere kloke veivisere for et helt folk.
We would like to thank you for this.
Det takker vi dere for.
We would also like to thank you for making the The Royal Journey exhibitions possible.
Vi takker dere også for at dere har gjort ”Den kongelige reise” mulig.
Several generations of the Royal Family have laid the groundwork for the exhibitions, by preserving not only very valuable gifts but also more everyday objects.
Flere generasjoner kongelige har lagt grunnlaget ved å ta vare på praktfulle gaver og hverdagslige ting.
King Harald and Queen Sonja have looked over the collections, facilitated the exhibitions, and have been happy to make their private possessions available.
Dagens kongepar har skaffet oversikt over samlingene, lagt til rette for utstillingene, og velvillig lånt ut private gjenstander.
We thank you for all the journeys that you have made.
Vi takker dere for alle reisene som er gjort.
And we wish you all the best for those that are still to come.
Og ønsker dere alt godt på dem som venter.
We would like to congratulate Your Majesties on your birthdays.
Til lykke med fødselsdagene!
As a token gift, I would like to present Your Majesties with this special edition of the book on the The Royal Journey exhibitions.
Som et uttrykk for utstillingene som er regjeringens gave, vil jeg overrekke kongeparet dette prakteksemplaret av boken om de kongelige samlinger.
