I Ccame from the dream-time, From the Fdusty red-soil Cplains
I Amam the ancient heart, The Fkeeper Gof the Cflame
I Cstood upon the rocky shores, I wFatched the tGall ships cAmomeF.
For Cforty thousand Dmyears I've been, The fFirst AustrGaliaCn
I Ccame upon the prison ship, bowed Fdown by iron Cchains
I Amfought the land, endured the lash, And Fwaited Gfor the Crains
I'm a Csettler, I'm a farmer's wife, On a dFry and bGarren rAmun,F
A Cconvict, then a Dmfree man, I beFcame AustGraliCan
I'm the Cdaughter of a digger, Who Fsought the mother Clode.
The Amgirl became a woman, On the Flong and Gdusty Croad.
I'm a Cchild of the Depression, I sFaw the gGood times cAmomeF,
I'm a Cbushie, I'm a bDmattler, I Fam AustGraliCan.
We areC one, but we are FmaCny,
CAnd from Amall the Glands on earth we Ccome.
We'll share a Cdream and sing with Fone Cvoice,
IF aGm, yAmou aGre, We aFre AustGraliCan
I'm a Cteller of stories, FI'm a singer of Csongs.
I am AmAlbert Namatjira, and I Fpaint the Gghostly Cgums.
I'm CClancy on his horse, I'm Ned FKelly Gon the AmrunF.
I'm the Cone who waltzed DmMatilda, I Fam AustrGaliCan
I'm the Chot wind from the desert, I'm the Fblack soil of the Cplanes.
I'm the Ammountains and the valleys, I'm the Fdrought and Gflooding Crains.
I Cam the rock, I am the sky, the Frivers Gwhen they Amrun,F
The Cspirt of this Dmgreat land, I Fam AustrGalianC
We areC one, but we are FmaCny,
CAnd from Amall the Glands on earth we Ccome.
We'll share a Cdream and sing with Fone Cvoice,
IF aGm, yAmou aGre, We aFre AustGraliCan
We areC one, but we are FmaCny,
CAnd from Amall the Glands on earth we Ccome.
We'll share a Cdream and sing with Fone Cvoice,
IF aGm, yAmou aGre, We aFre AustGraliCan
FI Gam, Amyou Gare... We aFre AustrGaliCan.
