It was the first and only time to date that a predominantly instrumental piece has won the Eurovision Song Contest, although a few Norwegian language lyrics were included to ensure that the entry adhered to the contest's rules. In addition Rolf Løvland also co-wrote the song La det swinge (Let it swing) that secured Norway its first Eurovision Song Contest victory in 1985.

Nocturne (English version) Lyrics
Now let the day just slip away
So the dark night may watch over you
Velvet blue, silent true
It embraces your heart and your soul
Nocturne
Never cry, never sigh
You don't have to wonder why
Always be, always see
Come and dream the night with me
Nocturne
Have no fear when the night draws near
And fills you with dreams and desire
Like a child asleep, so warm, so deep
You will find me there waiting for you
Nocturne2.9K
We will fly, claim the sky
You don't have to wonder why
Always be, always see
Come and dream the night with me
Nocturne
Though the darkness lay
It will give way
When the dark night delivers the day
Nocturne
Yasemin Avşar
Şimdi, günün kayıp gitmesine
İzin ver
Böylece karanlık gece sana göz kulak olabilsin
Kadife, mavi
Sessiz, gerçek
Bu kalbini ve ruhunu kucaklıyor
Gece manzarası...

This is by far the best eurovision song ever. And I'm not saying this because I am a norwegian. But this is just so...magical. Just as a song alone, but also the fact that it is from a time where the songs were supposed to portray the country it represented somehow too. Which they have in both the style of song (Norway being a country of mysteries and fairytales and deep forests) but also the choice of instruments. Still gives me goose bumps after all these years. And it still moves me. A masterpiece indeed. ♡
