English text
Oh Sir we would see, in our Colony
The paperbark white-snow Jesus-child,
As bushfire candles blaze
On our evergreen blue-gum Christmas trees.
Queen Majesty from across the sea,
Do you honour our Rainbow serpent dreamline Koori prince?
Kind sir, we send to thee from our Colony
The honey-white black-stump Koori-kid,
As hosts of angel gliders in the Southern Cross sky
Sing of a holy summer paddock with a brumby and a dingo by a virgin gin.
What do people bring across the Nullabor,
Down the Birdsville track from the gentle outback,
As gifts for the paperbark honey white-snow black-stump Koori-kid?
A wise camel train of Kalgoorlie gold!
A billy-can of fragrant tea-tree oil
And the bitter ashes from the Thursday fires
For the paperbark honey white-snow black-stump Koori-kid.
