about

This is how the Eastern Transvaal was in the 60s when I used to visit friends in the Lowveld .. My gradfather JB Taylor must have known it even more beautiful, when he was a transport rider in the 1800s.

lyrics

EASTERN PEACEFUL LAND

In the midday haze of the sunlights rays
You will lie in summer morning
Over fields of maize on these summer days
I will fly in wonder dreaming
Where the hills tumble down and the good earth is brown
And the water cascades in the cool mountain glades
I will come to you, I will sing to you
Oh my Eastern Peaceful Land

Neath a highveld sky pale in mid July
With the icy winds a'blowing
Where the stubble lies in my winter eyes
I will find great wonders growing
Where the grey craggy stone and the pines stand alone
On the slopes where they grow 'tween the high and the low
I will walk with you I will sing of you
Oh my Eastern Peaceful Land

I will come to you .. I will sing to you
I will walk with you .. I will sing of you
O my Eastern Peaceful Land
