vance Aus-tra-lia Fair
Beneath our radient Southern Cross
We'll toil with hearts and hands
To make this Commonwealth of ours
Renowned of all the lands
For those who've come across the seas
We've boundless plains to share,
With courage let us all combine
To Advance Australia Fair
In Joyful strains then let us sing
Advance Australia Fair
( The following verses were dumped by parliament in 1984 )
When gallant Cook from Albion sailed
To trace wide oceans o'er;
True British courage bore him on,
Till he landed on our shore;
Then here he raised Old England's flag,
the standard of the brave;
With all her faults we love her still,
Britannia rules the wave
In joyful strains then let us sing,
Advance Australia Fair.
Should Foreign foe e'er sight our coast,
Or dare a foot to land,
We'll rouse to arms like sires of yore,
To guard our native strand;
Britannia then shall surely know
Beyond wide ocean's roll,
Her sons in fair Australia's land
Still keep on British soul.
In Joyful starins then let us sing,
Advance Australia Fair
