Within Its Shining Green-Clad Domes
Within Its Shining Green-clad Domes
How stirs the heart when Nature sings
within its shining green-clad domes!
O' what astounding beauty it brings,
contrasting our dull man-made homes!
Blue skies above, grace Nature's plays
its creatures dancing to its tunes.
Across blue earth these green arrays
rival clear nights brightest moons!
Always there, found by its ardent fans
teeming life jousting in their dance.
Forever resisting man's foolish plans,
inspiring beauty, love and romance.
Will man ever learn to see its soul?
Will he conquer his heart black as coal?
