Virgin land of forest green Dark and stormy plain Here all life abounds
Sunlit valley, mountain fields
Unseen in the rain
Here all life abounds
No man rules this land No human hand has soiled this paradise
Waiting patiently So much to see So rich in Earth's delights
Painted desert, sequined sky Stars that fill the night
Here all life abounds
Rivers flowing to the sea
Sunshine pure and bright
Here all life abounds
No man rules this land No human hand has soiled this paradise
Waiting patiently
So much to see So rich in Earth's delights
So the maiden lies in waiting
Pull the sailor into shore
Land of beauty and abundance
Innocent, you opened wide your door
Wanderers found the waiting treasure Full of gifts beyond their measure Milk and Honey for our pleasure
Across the sea there came a multitude
Sailing ships upon the wave
Filled with visions of Utopia
And the freedom that they crave
Ravage, plunder, see no wonder Rape and kill and tear asunder Chop the forest, plow it under
Highways scar the mountainside Buildings to the sky People all around
Unsustaining in these roads See an eternity People all around
So we rule this land And here we stand Upon our paradise
Dreaming of a place Our weary race Is ready to arise
