< Instrumental overture till 3.02 >

Virgin land of forest green,
Dark and stormy pla-ains - {here all life abounds}.
Sunlit valley, mountain fields
Unseen in the ra-ain - {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 na-a-aight - {here all life abounds}.
Rivers flowing to the sea,
Sunshine pure and bra-a-aight - {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
For the sails to reach the sho-ore,
Land of beauty and abu-undance,
Innocent, you opened wide your do-or!
{Wanderers found the waiting treasure
Full of gifts beyond their measure,
Milk and honey for our pleasure-ah!}

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-ah!

< Instrumental interlude from 5.09 till 8.35 >

Highways scar the mountainsides,
Buildings to the ska-ay - {people all around}.
Houses stand in endless rows,
Sea to shining se-ea - {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.}
