@zigminator the song an old ballad and is found, as so many others, in Denmark, Sweden as well as Norway. The three countries is to be seen as an cultural unity not three separate unities. Hell the royal families has been closely related for over 1000 years with such a multitude of intermarriages that you can say they have actually been govern by the same family more often then not.
