The warrigal's lair is pent in bare	A
Black rocks at the gorge's mouth	B
It is set in ways where Summer strays	C
With the sprites of flame and drouth	B
But when the heights are touched with lights	D
Of hoar frost sleet and shine	E
His bed is made of the dead grass blade	F
And the leaves of the windy pine	E
	-
Through forest boles the storm wind rolls	G
Vext of the sea driv'n rain	H
And up in the clift through many a rift	I
The voices of torrents complain	H
The sad marsh fowl and the lonely owl	J
Are heard in the fog wreaths grey	K
When the warrigal wakes and listens and takes	L
To the woods that shelter the prey	K
	-
In the gully deeps the blind creek sleeps	M
And the silver showery moon	N
Glides over the hills and floats and fills	O
And dreams in the dark lagoon	N
While halting hard by the station yard	P
Aghast at the hut flame nigh	Q
The warrigal yells and flats and fells	R
Are loud with his dismal cry	Q
	-
On the topmost peak of mountains bleak	S
The south wind sobs and strays	C
Through moaning pine and turpentine	E
And the rippling runnel ways	C
And strong streams flow and great mists go	T
Where the warrigal starts to hear	U
The watch dog's bark break sharp in the dark	V
And flees like a phantom of fear	W
	-
The swift rains beat and the thunders fleet	X
On the wings of the fiery gale	Y
And down in the glen of pool and fen	Z
The wild gums whistle and wail	Y
As over the plains and past the chains	A2
Of waterholes glimmering deep	B2
The warrigal flies from the shepherd's cries	C2
And the clamour of dogs and sheep	B2
	-
He roves through the lands of sultry sands	D2
He hunts in the iron range	E2
Untamed as surge of the far sea verge	F2
And fierce and fickle and strange	E2
The white man's track and the haunts of the black	G2
He shuns and shudders to see	H2
For his joy he tastes in lonely wastes	I2
Where his mates are torrent and tree	H2
