"Grass Land" is a short, chipper tune, with just under 8 seconds of intro transitioning into the loop with a descending passage, setting the mood in 128 beats per minute in 4/4 time. Like almost all ''Kirby'' themes prior to the late 2000s, the theme is a MIDI composition and is essentially played live by the Game Boy's sound generator. In the 22 second loop, two main sections are heard: the first is twice the length of the other, played in 8 measures as opposed to the latter's 4. While the first section is played mostly legato with brief rests between phrases of the melody, the second section is played in a more staccato sense. | |||

It plays during the introductory cutscene for the level, leading into the first time Kirby visits the [[level hub]], and also plays as the default music within the first three stages themselves. Due to [[Rick]]'s presence within the level, much of it is played under "[[Rick's Theme]]" instead. The theme can be found as track 04 in the [[Jukebox#Kirby's Dream Land 2|Sound Test]]. | ||
