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
