Wide brown land

Just one of the verses of a famous Australian poem:  My Country by Dorothea McKellar.  You can read the whole thing, if you like.

I love a sunburnt country, 
A land of sweeping plains, 
Of ragged mountain ranges, 
Of droughts and flooding rains. 
I love her far horizons, 
I love her jewel-sea, 
Her beauty and her terror 
The wide brown land for me!
