## Lyrics

Se, stormen stilner nå

Du reiser deg opp, min venn

Og du vet med ett hvor du vil gå

Og veien er lett igjen

For stjernen lyser klar

Hjelper deg å finne veien hjem til meg

Stjernen lyser klar

Hjelper deg å finne veien hjem til meg

Hjelper deg å finne veien hjem til meg

Når verden er for stor

Og stien er altfor bratt

Kan du vende blikket mot Nord

Selv i denne mørke natt

Der stjernen lyser klar

Hjelper deg å finne veien hjem til meg

Der stjernen lyser klar

Hjelper deg å finne veien hjem til meg

Hjelper deg å finne veien hjem til meg

Du kan reise så langt du vil

Du kan velge en egen vei

Gjennom skog, over hav og fjell

Skinner stjernen klart for deg

Stormen stilner nå

Du reiser deg opp, min venn

Du vil alltid finne veien hjem

Den veien som fins i deg

### Lyrics translation

Watch the storm calm down now

You get up, my friend

And you know right away where you want to go

And the road is easy again

For the star shines bright

Helps you to find your way home to me

the star shines bright

Helps you to find your way home to me

Helps you to find your way home to me

When the world is too big

And the trail is way too steep

You can look north

Even in this dark night

Where the star shines bright

Helps you to find your way home to me

Where the star shines bright

Helps you to find your way home to me

Helps you to find your way home to me

You can travel as far as you want

You can choose your own path

Through forest, over sea and mountains

The star shines bright for you

The storm is calming down now

You get up, my friend

You will always find your way home

The way that exists in you
