Thou dark gray land, my native land,
Thou land Of rock and pine,
I'm speeding from thy yellow sands
But can wave a farewell hand
To such shore as thine!

Which shades thine emerald sod,
Thy bills which freedom'S share has Plough'd,

And thought thy gories small.

From piercing winds like those thou hast
