Botanisk Hage
Cezinando Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah
Der følger ikke dyrene etter
Der er det bare dyre skjeletter
Velkommen, ingen dyre billetter
Ute igjen før klokka tolv
Yeah
Der de får besøk noen netter
I en million av fine palletter
Oppi bedene de løper og detter
Forestiller seg betong
Vanlige kvelder bare at ingen aner lenger
Du kan se på damer, må betale for bassenger
Ikke noe du står på her er vanlig terrenger
Så her hjemme må jeg gjøre det til en vane når de stenger
Bli med på en kvelds- eller dagstur, vi kan se på hamp i et hasjbur
Du kan fortsatt høre mennesker og biler
Mellom sommerfugl, buskene og natur
Sniffer rosa rhododendron
Men du må ikke gå på steinene
Da kan en deltidsvakt gi deg tilsnakk
Og snakke til deg som det er noe du burde regne med
Ingen folk her når det regner, men
Det er bare trærne tilgode
De har ting de skulle sagt de også
Og det er noen ganger [?]

Botanisk hage, botanisk-tanisk
Botanisk hage
Hele året, daglig vane
(Botanisk hage, botanisk-manisk)

Botanisk hage, ingenting som [?]

Her blir det ikke noe bedre eller verre
Vi legger fra oss alt foran dere
Bærer ingenting i bryst eller hjerne
Ingen kan ta på seg skyld
Det ekke' noen helt du kan spørre
Hvis du mest sannsynlig helt skulle tørre
Og med nettene blir toppene større
Resten mister all idyll
Der er alle kloner som blir klona ifra kloden
Alle plenene klippes i pene formasjoner
Oppå takene ligger det engler og demoner
Og de speiler seg i speilinger av ego til personer
Kom å se tilbake på nåtid
Eller vi kan grave opp et måltid
Løper ut igjen med grønske på henda
Før de røttene forsvinner med en årstid
Helt i midten finnes det glassbur
Der de har fanga alle klimaene
Men det er som kake uten glasur
La oss bare forholde oss til paradigmene
Eller prøve å bite og bli stygg med meg
Men det kan'ke skje inne i hagen

Ha'kke øye for det viste ikke perfekt
Smiler med knust is inni magen

Botanisk hage, botanisk-tanisk
Botanisk hage

Hele året, daglig vane
(Botanisk hage, botanisk-manisk)
Botanisk hage, ingenting som [?]

Ingen her har noen interesse for den lommeboka
Faster eller begynner å bli feit
Du kan bytte alt du tviler på med det du veit
La øyelokka falle under en eller annen eik
Eller bare glemme at du skal dø og at du lever
Uten å forvente noe ære eller heder
For her er det ikke du som bor, nei
Her kan du bare bli til jord, ey
Her er det ikke snakk om å være kvinne eller mann
For sine ord fordi det er best å holde tyst
Alt er mørkt og ingenting blir lyst
Og i skumringen ser skyene ut som ametyster

Og fuglekvitter danser mellom stammene i tre-stemt skala
Bare vent til bildene blir helt fremkalla
Men her er det ikke du som bor, nei
Ingenting er som du tror

Botanisk hage, botanisk-tanisk
Botanisk hage
Hele året, daglig vane
(Botanisk hage, botanisk-manisk)
Botanisk hage, ingenting som [?]
Botanisk hage, botanisk-tanisk
Botanisk hage
Hele året, daglig vane




(Botanisk hage, botanisk-manisk)

Overall Meaning

The song "Botanisk Hage" by Cezinando provides a glimpse into the world of a botanical garden. The song talks about how this place is not like any other place, with only animal skeletons to follow and no need for animal tickets. The garden is a place where one can escape to and enjoy the beauty of nature. Through the song, it is apparent that the garden provides a peaceful and meditative space where people can lose themselves in the splendor of the plants.


The garden is described as a place where people visit for a few nights and run around in the flower beds while imagining themselves in a concrete jungle. The garden is a place that goes beyond the norm where one can see and smell things like rhododendrons in pink. The song talks about the beauty of the place during the day and night, with topiary sculptures, demons, and angels remaining the same no matter the time. The song reflects on the power of a botanical garden to provide a place to escape to and be lost in nature without the burdens of daily life.


Line by Line Meaning

Der følger ikke dyrene etter
The animals don't follow here


Der er det bare dyre skjeletter
There are only expensive skeletons here


Velkommen, ingen dyre billetter
Welcome, no expensive tickets


Ute igjen før klokka tolv
Out again before midnight


Der de får besøk noen netter
Where they get visitors some nights


I en million av fine palletter
In a million beautiful palettes


Oppi bedene de løper og detter
They run and fall inside the flower beds


Forestiller seg betong
Imagining concrete


Vanlige kvelder bare at ingen aner lenger
Ordinary evenings, but no one knows anymore


Du kan se på damer, må betale for bassenger
You can look at women, but you have to pay for swimming pools


Ikke noe du står på her er vanlig terrenger
Nothing you stand on here is normal terrain


Så her hjemme må jeg gjøre det til en vane når de stenger
So at home, I have to make it a habit when they close


Bli med på en kvelds- eller dagstur, vi kan se på hamp i et hasjbur
Join me on an evening or day trip, we can look at hemp in a hashish cage


Du kan fortsatt høre mennesker og biler
You can still hear people and cars


Mellom sommerfugl, buskene og natur
Between butterfly, bushes, and nature


Sniffer rosa rhododendron
Sniffing pink rhododendron


Men du må ikke gå på steinene
But you must not walk on the stones


Da kan en deltidsvakt gi deg tilsnakk
Then a part-time guard can scold you


Og snakke til deg som det er noe du burde regne med
And speak to you as if it's something you should expect


Ingen folk her når det regner, men
No people here when it rains, but


Det er bare trærne tilgode
It's only the trees that benefit


De har ting de skulle sagt de også
They have things to say too


Og det er noen ganger [?]
And sometimes it's [?]


Botanisk hage, botanisk-tanisk
Botanical garden, botanical-tanisk


Hele året, daglig vane
All year round, daily habit


(Botanisk hage, botanisk-manisk)
(Botanical garden, botanical-manic)


Botanisk hage, ingenting som [?]
Botanical garden, nothing like [?]


Her blir det ikke noe bedre eller verre
It doesn't get any better or worse here


Vi legger fra oss alt foran dere
We leave everything in front of you


Bærer ingenting i bryst eller hjerne
Carry nothing in chest or brain


Ingen kan ta på seg skyld
No one can take the blame


Det ekke' noen helt du kan spørre
There's no hero you can ask


Hvis du mest sannsynlig helt skulle tørre
If you were the hero who dared


Og med nettene blir toppene større
And with the nights, the peaks become bigger


Resten mister all idyll
The rest loses all idyll


Der er alle kloner som blir klona ifra kloden
There are all clones cloned from the planet


Alle plenene klippes i pene formasjoner
All lawns are cut in neat formations


Oppå takene ligger det engler og demoner
On the roofs, there are angels and demons


Og de speiler seg i speilinger av ego til personer
And they mirror themselves in reflections of people's egos


Kom å se tilbake på nåtid
Come and look back at the present


Eller vi kan grave opp et måltid
Or we can dig up a meal


Løper ut igjen med grønske på henda
Running out again with green on my hands


Før de røttene forsvinner med en årstid
Before the roots disappear with a season


Helt i midten finnes det glassbur
Right in the middle, there's a glass cage


Der de har fanga alle klimaene
Where they captured all the climates


Men det er som kake uten glasur
But it's like a cake without frosting


La oss bare forholde oss til paradigmene
Let's just stick to the paradigms


Eller prøve å bite og bli stygg med meg
Or try to bite and become ugly with me


Men det kan'ke skje inne i hagen
But that can't happen inside the garden


Ha'kke øye for det viste ikke perfekt
Don't have an eye for what's not perfect


Smiler med knust is inni magen
Smiling with broken ice inside my stomach


Ingen her har noen interesse for den lommeboka
No one here has any interest in the wallet


Faster eller begynner å bli feit
Fast or starting to get fat


Du kan bytte alt du tviler på med det du veit
You can exchange everything you doubt for what you know


La øyelokka falle under en eller annen eik
Let the eyelid fall under some oak


Eller bare glemme at du skal dø og at du lever
Or just forget that you're going to die and that you're alive


Uten å forvente noe ære eller heder
Without expecting any honor or glory


For her er det ikke du som bor, nei
Because here it's not you who lives, no


Her kan du bare bli til jord, ey
Here, you can only turn into soil, ey


Her er det ikke snakk om å være kvinne eller mann
Here, there's no talk of being a woman or a man


For sine ord fordi det er best å holde tyst
For their words, it's best to keep quiet


Alt er mørkt og ingenting blir lyst
Everything is dark, and nothing becomes light


Og i skumringen ser skyene ut som ametyster
And in the twilight, the clouds look like amethysts


Og fuglekvitter danser mellom stammene i tre-stemt skala
And bird chirps dance between the tree trunks in three-part harmony


Bare vent til bildene blir helt fremkalla
Just wait until the pictures are fully developed


Ingen her har noen interesse for den lommeboka
No one here has any interest in the wallet


Botanisk hage, ingenting som [?]
Botanical garden, nothing like [?]

Here is a rough translation



The animals don't follow in here
It's only animal skeletons here
Welcome, no expensive tickets
Out again by twelve o'clock

We get visitors some nights
In a million of nice pallets
In the flowerbeds, they run and fall
Imagining concrete

Regular night, but nobody has a clue
You can look at the ponds, but you have to pay for the pools
Nothing that we walk on is regular terrain
So I hide and make it a habit when they close

Join for a night-or day-tour
We can look at hemp in a hasjcage
You can still hear people and cars
Between butterflies, the bushes and nature

Sniffing pink rhododendron, but you must'nt walk on the stones
Then a part-time guard might talk to you
And talk to you like it is something you should have expected

There's nobody here when it's raining
But thats good for the trees
They also have something to say
But sometimes, it's hard to decode

(Chorus)

It doesn't get better or worse here
We leave everything infront of the fence
We bare nothing in our chest or brain
Nobody can take the blame

There's no hero you can ask
If you against probability would dare
And at night the tops get bigger
The rest lose all idyll

There are all the clones that are clones from clones.
All the lawns are mown in beautiful formations
Up on the roof there are both angles and demos
And they're mirroring themselves in the reflections of peoples egos

Come and look back at the present
Or we can dig up a meal
Running out again with greenery on your hand
Before the roots disappers with the seasons

In the middle there's a glass cage
Where they have captured all the climates
But it's like cake without frosting
Let us just focus on the paradigms

Or try to break the stigmas
But that can't happen in the garden
I don't look at it unless it's perfect
Smiling with shattered ice in my stomach

(Chorus)

Nobody here has any interest if your wallet is fasting or about to be fat
You can replace everthing you doubt with what you know
Let your eyelids drop under an oak
Picking pine nuts

Or you can just forget that you will die and that you live
Without expecting any honour or glory
Because this isn't where you live (no)
Here you can turn into soil (ey)

Here there is no talk about being woman or man
For their words because it's best to be quiet
Everything is dark, nothing illuminated
And at dusk, the cloud look like amethysts
And birds singing

Dancing between the trunks
In a trios scale
Just wait until the pictures are entierly clear
Because this isn't where you live
Nothing is like what you believe it to be

(Chorus)

This song has a special place in my heart. My boyfriend and I visited Oslo and Tromsø last year for our anniversary, he actually surprised me and didn't tell me where we were going until we got to the airport. As we were waiting in the airport at 6 am, he showed me a long playlist full of Norwegian music that he had been listening to and preparing for me weeks before the trip, amongst which 'Botanisk Hage.' It is impossible for people to understand the depth of it, the warm magical feeling and the emotions that went through my body in that moment, being shocked that I am about to visit one of my favourite countries for the first time with the love of my life, being excited that I am about to taste a bit of this Scandinavian culture that I have been so fascinated with and being nervous at the same time. It was such a life changing experience and this song accompanied us through it. <3

@bragemerkesdal6973

wow, that's beautiful :')

@saevitus

i really hope you visited the botanisk hage in oslo, it is easily the most beautiful botanical garden i have ever visited before

@saevitus

also, tromsø is where i want to settle down, I absolutely loved that city, but it is quite a few hours away from my family sadly.

@Gee202

This is so good, you're so cool. I'm a fan. I just love your body language and the way this video has no extra in it, just the music, nature and you. Keep up the awesome work, you got a fan in Finland! <3
