'Cause we are one but we are many
And from all the lands on earth we come
We share a dream and sing with one voice
I am, you are, we are Australian

I came from the dream time, from the dusty red soil plains
I am the ancient heart, the keeper of the flame
I stood upon the rocky shore, I watched the tall ships come
For forty thousand years I'd been the first Australian

I came upon the prison ship bound down by iron chains
I cleared the land, endured the lash and waited for the rains
I'm a settler, I'm a farmer's wife on a dry and barren run
A convict then a free man, I became Australian

I'm the daughter of a digger who sought the mother lode
The girl became a woman on the long and dusty road
I'm a child of the depression, I saw the good times come
I'm a bushy, I'm a battler, I am Australian

'Cause we are one but we are many
And from all the lands on earth we come
We share a dream and sing with one voice
I am, you are, we are Australian

I'm a teller of stories, I'm a singer of songs
I am Albert Namatjira, I paint the ghostly gums
I'm Clancy on his horse, I'm Ned Kelly on the run
I'm the one who waltzed Matilda, I am Australian

I'm the hot wind from the desert, the black soil of the plains
I'm the mountains and the valleys, I'm the drought and flooding rains
I'm the rock, I am the sky, the rivers when they run
The spirit of this great land, I am Australian

'Cause we are one but we are many
And from all the lands on earth we come
We share a dream and sing with one voice
I am, you are, we are Australian

We are one but we are many
And from all the lands on earth we come
We share a dream and sing with one voice
I am, you are, we are Australian

We are one but we are many
And from all the lands on earth we come
We share a dream and sing with one voice
I am, you are, we are Australian
