Where It Is Often Raining

Where it is often raining and few days are dry The place of the low cloud and often gray sky Where the rivers are often swollen from from flood waters of stream and drain And the mountains are often cloaked in the gray fogs of rain A Country in Spring that does look lush and green Where on a clear day great beauty is to be seen Old memories die hard as the wise one does say Of the evergreen Country from here far away That on a clear day from the higher ground One can view beautiful countryside for kilometers around The white waves of the Pacific are tossing about On this sunny and breezy evening in this Land so far south Of the place of the low cloud and flooded stream and drain That is flowing to the river swollen by heavy rain.
