Advance Australia Fair
Fra Wikipedia, den frie encyklopædi
Advance Australia Fair er Australiens officielle nationalsang. Den bruges såvel som vores egen nationalsang - Der er et yndigt land - til højtideligheder og store sportsbegivenheder. Men dog er den uofficielle nationalsang Waltzing Matilda meget mere kendt.
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. Omkvæd: 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. Omkvæd: In joyful strains then let us sing, "Advance Australia Fair."
