Oh fair Ideal unto whom	A
Through days of doubt and nights of gloom	A
Brave hearts have clung while lips of scorn	B
Made mock of thee as but a dream	C
Already on the heights of morn	B
We see thy golden sandals gleam	C
And glimmering through the clouds that wrap thee yet	D
The seven stars that are thy coronet	D
	-
Why tarriest thou 'twixt earth and heaven	E
Go forth to meet her Sisters seven	E
'Tis but your welcome she awaits	F
Ere casting off the veil of cloud	G
The bodied Hope of blending States	F
She stands revealed imperial proud	G
As from your salutation sprung full grown	H
With green for raiment and with gold for zone	H
	-
From where beneath unclouded skies	I
Thy peerless haven glittering lies	I
From where o'er pleasant pastures rove	J
The flocks from which thy greatness sprang	K
From vine clad slope and orange grove	J
From grave mute woods thy Minstrel sang	K
From Alpine peaks aglow with flush of morn	B
Go forth to meet her thou the eldest born	B
	-
From where reverberant at thy feet	L
The billows of two oceans meet	L
From where the rocks thy treasures hide	M
From mart and wharf and harbour mouth	N
From where the city of thy pride	M
Ennobles all the teeming South	N
To meet her thou with loftiest zeal inflamed	O
Go forth Victoria queen and queenly named	O
	-
And thou the youngest yet most fair	P
First to discern and first to dare	P
Whose lips sun smitten earliest spoke	Q
The herald words of coming good	R
And with their clarion summons broke	Q
The slumber of the sisterhood	R
Foremost of all thy peers press on to greet	L
	-
Her advent strewing flowers before her feet	L
	-
And thou around whose brow benign	S
Vine leaf and olive intertwine	S
Upon whose victories the Star	T
Of Peace looks down with no rebuke	U
The weapons of whose warfare are	T
The ploughshare and the pruning hook	V
Take with thee gifts of corn and wine and oil	W
To greet thy liege with homage of the soil	W
	-
Thou too whom last the morning beams	X
Wake from thy sleep by peaceful streams	X
Slow westering to the Indian main	Y
Thou too beneath thy later sun	E
Conspire with these in glad refrain	Y
Of welcome to the coming One	E
And from thy fragrant forests tribute bring	Z
Of grateful incense for thine offering	Z
	-
And thou Pomona of the South	N
Ruddy of cheek and ripe of mouth	N
Who from thy couch of orchard bloom	A
With fearless foot are wont to stray	A2
By mountain lakes or in the gloom	A
Of forest depths unknown of day	A2
Be thy shrill greeting borne upon the breeze	B2
Above the thunder of thy girdling seas	B2
	-
Nor thou delay who dwell'st apart	C2
To join thy peers with gladsome heart	C2
Whether the summons thee o'ertake	Z
On icy steep or fruitful plain	Y
Or where thy craggy bulwarks break	Z
The onslaught of the warring main	Y
Or find thee couched within some ferny lair	P
Flax flower and hyacinth mingling with thy hair	P
	-
Bind ye the sevenfold cord apace	D2
Weave ye the sevenfold wreath to grace	D2
The brow of her whose avatar	T
The mighty Mother waits to bless	E2
In sevenfold choir be borne afar	T
The music of your joyfulness	E2
Till o'er the world's disquiet your song prevail	F2
Australia Foederata Hail all hail	F2
