A lone wattle swaying free

tetherless in the breeze

Just one plant that is native to this land

Among others that are ever so grand

 

Kangaroos hop jump and skip around

While wombats burrow in the ground

A beautiful country surrounded by water

Named Australia by an English explorer

 

A tropical climate influences the weather

Drought or floods Aussies stick together

A country compared to others is ever so free

Due to parliament being a democracy

 

Koalas, platypus and dingoes

G'day mate, crikey the aussie lingo

Accepting of others no matter the culture

As Indians lead blueberry agriculture

 

Australia has deserts, forests and beaches

Educational facilities full of teachers

A safe country where you can be free

A beautiful country for you and me
