The Land I Know

My land is one of fertile earth and smiles as broad as the horizon My land offers hospitality absolute and kindness abundant My land seeks your hand in friendship and love My land opens to receive the rains from way up above My land is a place of beauty and splendour With many warm hearths and many opened door Open to the sweet smell of newly fallen rain Where the summer sun leaves you sunkissed And the icy winter winds leave you breathless My land is filled with heroes, many in each hue With the morning moistened with showers of dew With the summer evenings filled with laughter and fun With the winter nights so peaceful and long My land is one you see now My land is one you know now
