Alight in the country (4)
I believe the answer is:
land
This clue is a double definition.
'alight' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'in the country' is the second definition.
('land' is part of 'country')
(Other definitions for land that I've seen before include "Disembark" , "Country, state" , "part of surface" , "Secure" , "Alight; country" .)
