Green and Pleasant Land

Green and Pleasant Land is the official national anthem of the Bird Kingdom. The lyrics were lifted from Clyde Macheneck's poem "Sacred Green Pastures", and is representative of Graeldan's beautiful countryside. The song was officially adopted as the national anthem in 1902.

Verse One:

"And did those birds in ancient time

Fly over Graeldan's hills of green:

And was the holy child of God,

On Graeldan's pleasant pastures seen!"

Chorus:

"So spread your wings, and go sky high

Glide over our clouded skies

And see our home, our land, our love

O' Graedldan's green and pleasant land"

Verse 2:

"From sea to sea, from shore to shore

Our land is blessed with beauty

And that beauty we shall fight for

From here on to eternity"

Chorus

Verse 3:

"The clouds shall part, the angels sing

As your grace washes o'er the land

And we your sons, promis this one thing

To guard thee til bones turn to sand "

Chorus
