Welcome are all earth's lands， each for its kind，

    Welcome are lands of pine and oak，

    Welcome are lands of the lemon and fig，

    Welcome are lands of gold，

    Welcome are lands of wheat and maize， welcome those of the

    grape，

    Welcome are lands of sugar and rice，

    Welcome the cotton-lands， welcome those of the white potato and

    sweet potato，

    Welcome are mountains， flats， sands， forests， prairies，

    Welcome the rich borders of rivers， table-lands， openings，

    Welcome the measureless grazing-lands， welcome the teeming soil

    of orchards， flax， honey， hemp；

    Welcome just as much the other more hard-faced lands，

    Lands rich as lands of gold or wheat and fruit lands，

    Lands of mines， lands of the manly and rugged ores，

    Lands of coal， copper， lead， tin， zinc，

    Lands of iron - lands of the make of the axe.
