Fana is a borough of the city of Bergen, Norway.
Prior to 1972, Fana was an independent municipality which territory also included today's boroughs of Ytrebygda, Fyllingsdalen, and the southernmost part of Årstad.
Fana is the geographically largest of the city's boroughs, with an area of 159.7 km2 (61.7 sq mi). Most major industries in Fana are located near Nesttun, the administrative centre of Fana until the municipality was incorporated into Bergen. The north-eastern part is dominated by residential areas, being home to the majority of the borough's population, while the rest of the borough contains mostly forest, mountains, some farmland, in addition to a few minor settlements such as Fanahammeren, Nordvåg and Krokvåg.
As of 1 January 2012, Fana had a population of 39,216.
Gamlehaugen is located by Nordåsvannet in northern Fana, south of Fjøsanger. The mansion is the residence of the Royal Family in Bergen, and is surrounded by a park. It was commissioned by Christian Michelsen, a shipping magnate and later Prime Minister of Norway, in 1899, and he lived there until his death in 1925. While the park is open to the public at almost all times, the building is only open for a few hours a day in the summer and receives about 2000 visitors a year.

Plot: Every morning Bushin wakes his friend Fana with the greeting that today is their lucky day. They are Black day laborers in South Africa, and that day, both get jobs. Fana's is with a burly White farmer who wants one worker only. The man is odd, with a temper. He asks Fana to set his wage for the day. Before they reach his farm, he stops at a casino. Once at the farm, Fana sees odd things: a dead dog, a living room that's a wreck. The farmer promises Fana the full 40 rand Fana has asked for if Fana will tell him the truth. Fana is wary. His job is to dig a grave, read from the Bible, and answer truthfully a question the rifle-toting farmer asks. Is this Fana's lucky day?

Plot: After a long absense from the island, Chester Tuttle returns to Tahiti to find that little has changed. His large family, particularly his scheming Uncle Jonas, would rather dance and romance than earn a living. When Jonas loses the family plantation in a cockfight, Chester saves the day by towing in a large ship abandoned at sea and claiming the salvage. But opening a joint bank account in the name of the Tuttle clan may not have been a wise decision....

The cosmic conceiver continues his plight
A war of the heavens, what's wrong and what's right
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
Spraying the children with incense and myrrh
The hopeless confessions of minds unsure
Spraying the children with incense and myrrh
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
I tried to come over and see you today
I tried to come over to want you to say
I wanted you say to come today
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
Mindlessly hoping she falls for their minds
Holding the sacraments, secrets unkind
Chewing the curdles of cream from the rain
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
Chewing the grits...
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
