The Mouse Song is one of the most famous Christmas carols in Norway. Alf Prøysen wrote the lyrics in 1946 after being asked to write a children's song for use in a radio programme for Christmas. The melody is traditional Norwegian folk music in the style of a reinlender, an old Norwegian dance.

[NO]Musevisa er en av de aller mest kjente- og spilte julesangene i Norge. Alf Prøysen skrev teksten i 1946 etter at Lauritz Johnson hadde bedt Prøysen om å lage noen barneviser egnet til julesendinger på radio.
Melodien er hentet fra norsk folkemusikk og stilarten reinlender. Med dette arrangementet er julesangen også tilgjengelig både for mindre grupper og brass- og janitsjarbesetninger.
