Green mansions, high upon a hill
Describing a place called "Green Mansions" situated on a hill.

Portrays "Green Mansions" as tranquil and calm.
Big wall all around
Refers to a substantial barrier enclosing the area.
It's where my baby will be found

Waiting for that day, to come

Tried in vain to forget
