Also known as "Midnatt råder" or "Tipp tapp", a Christmas song with lyrics by Alfred Smedberg (under the alias "Tippu Tipp") and music by Vilhelm Sefve-Svensson (under the alias "Vilh. Sefve"). The song was originally published in the children’s magazine "Jultomten" in 1898 and has then been re-published several times. In 1916 it was published in "115 sånger för de små". According to song researcher Lennart Kjellgren the crediting of Sefve for the music is uncertain (1999).
