Australia takes her pen in hand	A
To write a line to you	B
To let you fellows understand	A
How proud we are of you	B
	-
From shearing shed and cattle run	C
From Broome to Hobson's Bay	D
Each native born Australian son	C
Stands straighter up today	D
	-
The man who used to 'hump his drum'	E
On far out Queensland runs	F
Is fighting side by side with some	E
Tasmanian farmer's sons	F
	-
The fisher boys dropped sail and oar	G
To grimly stand the test	H
Along that storm swept Turkish shore	G
With miners from the west	H
	-
The old state jealousies of yore	G
Are dead as Pharaoh's sow	I
We're not State children any more	G
We're all Australians now	I
	-
Our six starred flag that used to fly	J
Half shyly to the breeze	K
Unknown where older nations ply	J
Their trade on foreign seas	K
	-
Flies out to meet the morning blue	B
With Vict'ry at the prow	I
For that's the flag the Sydney flew	B
The wide seas know it now	I
	-
The mettle that a race can show	L
Is proved with shot and steel	M
And now we know what nations know	L
And feel what nations feel	M
	-
The honoured graves beneath the crest	H
Of Gaba Tepe hill	N
May hold our bravest and our best	H
But we have brave men still	N
	-
With all our petty quarrels done	C
Dissensions overthrown	O
We have through what you boys have done	C
A history of our own	O
	-
Our old world diff'rences are dead	P
Like weeds beneath the plough	I
For English Scotch and Irish bred	P
They're all Australians now	I
	-
So now we'll toast the Third Brigade	Q
That led Australia's van	R
For never shall their glory fade	Q
In minds Australian	C
	-
Fight on fight on unflinchingly	N
Till right and justice reign	S
Fight on fight on till Victory	T
Shall send you home again	U
	-
And with Australia's flag shall fly	N
A spray of wattle bough	I
To symbolise our unity	T
We're all Australians now	I
