Nu Er Det Jul [Nissebanden] [English translation]

Now it's Christmas, now it's Christmas

All nissegang-nisser 1 are so happy

They'll be emptying many, many, many dishes

Filled with rice porridge

Now 'it Christmas, now' it Christmas

All nissegang-nisser are so excited

On how many many packages they have to pick up

And if the package it is soft

High up far on2 the north

Where Santa lives

And is looking from his winter hide

There is his sleigh ready

For the trip he takes

So it can be a nice Christmas

But what now, but what now

If they didn't come, the packages that should come

And if all the dishes were empty

Whatever could have happened?

Is he tired, has he cried?

Is he weak and sick and infected and having a cold?

Does the nose run down into the nissebeer?

Or does he feel bad?

High up far on the north

Where Santa lives

And is looking from his winter hide

There is his sleigh ready

For the trip he takes

So it can be a nice Christmas

(Ohhhhh, ohhhhhh

Now it's Christmas again, Now 'it Christmas again, nanananana)

There is his sleigh ready

For the trip he takes

So it can be a nice Christmas

So it can be a nice Christmas

Nice Christmas...

1. A" nisse" is similar to an elf, but not quite the same, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nisse_(folklore).2. He does sing "på" which means "on" though it doesn't make sense in Danish, it should have been "mod", which means "towards".
