Singing Land (MacLean Dougie)

Your burning skies are never-ending Across your red brush plains Out where the dingo still is king and eternity remains There between the old and ancient there's an oasis bright Your gentle children who have gone are close to me tonight Chorus: In your singing land, in your singing land Shine on, oh shine on over me There's a feeling still and eerie, there's a feeling strong The path humanity has come and the path that he has gone Me I am I am just passing three score years and ten And I'm just a stranger who may never come this way again Chorus Under the spell of caterpillar dreaming New life shapes its form Along the river's naked banks That are straining for the storm Oh sacred rock, in thunder ocean The tree of man grows clear The woodlarks sing, the brolgas dance and Dawn is slipping near
