[Verse 1] You've never been to our land, Where the sky runs blue and wide, Where the steppe rolls on forever And the ancient mounds rise high. You have never known those evenings When the spring is in the trees, When the whole world seems to tremble In the warm and restless breeze. [Verse 2] Ah, how could you ever know it, How could words make you understand, When you're laughing, when you're crying, When you're shaking where you stand? When your heart keeps beating harder, Like it wants to leave your chest, And the night above the meadow Will not let your spirit rest. [Chorus] You've never been to our land, You've never seen that endless blue. You've never heard the open country Call your name the whole night through. If you'd ever walked those fields, If you'd heard the grasses sigh, You would never be the same man Underneath another sky. [Verse 3] There are roads that lose their names there, There are fields without an end, There are songs that rise at sunset Like a voice from an old friend. And the people born among them Carry silence, wind and flame, They may travel far away, But the land remains the same. [Final Chorus] You've never been to our land, So you cannot know it yet — How a single springtime evening Is a thing you can't forget. If you'd stood beneath that heaven, If you'd watched the daylight die, You would carry those blue distances Forever in your eyes. [Outro] You've never been to our land... Not yet. Not yet.
