最近看到有澳洲打工渡假的朋友用這一首歌紀錄了他在澳洲生活的一切
讓我也想到那一年的美好壓~
趕緊把這首歌學起來,一起來遙想美好的澳洲
I am, you are, we are Australian
From the dusty red-soil plains.
I am the ancient
heart,
The keeper of the
flame.
I stood upon the
rocky shores,
I watched the tall
ships come,
For forty thousand
years I've been
The first
Australian.
I came upon the prison ship,
Bowed down by iron
chains,
I fought 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 bushie, I'm a
battler,
I am Australian.
We are one, but we are many,
And from all the
lands on earth we come.
We'll 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
And 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,
I'm the black soil
of the plains,
I'm the mountains
and the valleys,
I'm the drought and
flooding rains.
I am the rock, I am
the sky,
The rivers when
they run,
The spirit of this
great land,
I am Australian.
We are one, but we are many,
And from all the
lands on earth we come.
We'll share a dream
and sing with one voice,
"I am, you
are, we are Australian."
"I am, you are, we are Australian."
