Australia National Anthem Lyrics

ADVANCE AUSTRALIA FAIR

Australians all let us rejoice,
For we are one* and free;
We've golden soil and wealth for toil,
Our home is girt by sea;
Our land abounds in nature's gifts,
Of beauty rich and rare;
In history's page let every stage,
Advance Australia Fair!

In joyful strains then let us sing,
Advance Australia Fair!

Beneath our radiant Southern Cross,
We'll toil with heart and hands;
To make this Commonwealth of ours,
Renowned through all the lands;
For those who've come across the seas,
We've boundless plains to share;
With courage let us all combine to
Advance Australia Fair!

In joyful strains then let us sing,
Advance Australia Fair!

[*The lyrics of "Advance Australia Fair", as modified by the National Australia Day Council,
were officially adopted in April 1984.
The lyrics were updated as of 1 January 2021 in an attempt to recognisze Indigenous Australians,
with the word “one” in the second line replacing the previous “young”. ]
