Westralia Free Land of the vast horizons, Land where the reef gold gleams, For chains awaits thee glory Dominion of our dreams We will heal thy wrong By a justice strong And our victor song, Westralia, Westralia, Westralia shall be free. Land of the swan-jet plumaged, Of faery crystal cave, Dear land, God keep thy people Brave, as their sires were brave. In the Day of Right Be we girt with might And the battle fight To set Westralia free. Plains of our pastures boundless, Seas of our rainbow'd pearl, Destiny is your breezes Liberty's flag unfurl! See its folds flung wide And the challenge cried "On to conquer ride, "Wave o'er Westralia free!" Land of the karri spring, Land of the wheat and vine, Aye to thy sons and daughters Faith's altar and Love's shrine. Lo! Our vows were sworn, And the triumph born In a nation's dawn, "We made Westralia free." [Battye Library, Acc 1801A] |
