    Our land abounds in natures gifts of beauty rich and rare,
    Our histtrys stage let every page

    In joyful strains then let us sing
    Advance Australia fair.

    WALTZING MATILDA
    Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong,
    Under the shade of a Coolibah tree,
    And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boil,
    You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.

    Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda,


    You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me,
    And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boil
    You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.

    Down came a jumbuck to drink at that billabong


    Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee,
    And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag
    You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.

    Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda,


    You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me,
    And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag
    You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.
