I believe the original language is Swedish, though set by a Norwegian
composer (Grieg in his Peer Gynt Suite). Norwegians often used Swedish in
literature because historically it was considered more suited for the
sound element so necessary in poetry. Someone correct me if I have my
facts backwards; I'm recalling this from memory.
