Extremely famous and often mentioned alongside the Norwegian national anthem, the poem of Theodor Caspari (1853-1948), found in his collection of poems entitled Vinter i Norge (Winter in Norway) - very aptly describes the country sleeping during the winter months and the longing for a sunny spring: "However, when summer departs - and life with it - then teach me to wither, oh Norway my Mother, and make me a bed in your sacred soil." Alfred Paulsen (1849-1936) - Norwegian-born organist and choral director who immigrated to the USA and settled in Chicago, set the poem to music in 1911.
