Lyrics - nb. verses Two, Four and Five are rarely sung.
Australians all let us rejoice
For we are young and free
We've golden soil and wealth for toil
Our home is girt by sea
Our land abounds in Nature's gifts
Of beauty rich and rare
In history's page, let every stage
Advance Australia fair!
In joyful strains then let us sing
Advance Australia fair
When gallant Cook from Albion sail'd
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
Brittannia rules the wave
In joyful strains then let us sing
Advance Australia fair
Beneath our radiant 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
While other nations of the globe
Behold us from afar
We'll rise to high renown and shine
Like our glorious southern star
From England, Scotia, Erin's Isle
Who come our lot to share
Let all combine with heart and hand
To advance Australia fair
In joyful strains then let us sing
Advance Australia fair
Shou'd 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
Brittannia then shall surely know
Beyond wide ocean's roll
Her sons in fair Australia's land
Still keep a British soul.
In joyful strains the let us sing
Advance Australia fair
