We've boundless plains to share,

With courage let us all combine

In Joyful strains then let us sing

Advance Australia Fair

( The following verses were dumped by parliament in 1984 )

When gallant Cook from Albion sailed

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,

Britannia rules the wave

In joyful strains then let us sing,

Advance Australia Fair.

Should 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;

Britannia then shall surely know

Beyond wide ocean's roll,

Her sons in fair Australia's land

Still keep on British soul.

In Joyful starins then let us sing,

Advance Australia Fair
