00:00I came from the dream time, from the dusty red soil plains.
00:09I am the ancient heart, the keeper of the flames.
00:15I stood upon the rocky shores, I watched the tulsi's come.
00:22For forty thousand years I've been the first Australian.
00:28I came upon a prison ship, bowed down by the chains.
00:35I fought the land, endured the lash, and waited for the rains.
00:42I'm a seller, I'm a farmer's wife, on a dry and barren run.
00:48I can't wait, now a free man, I became Australian.
00:53We are one, but we are manly.
00:59And from all the lands on earth we come, we share a dream.
01:07And sing with one voice, I am, you are, we are Australian.
01:18I am, you are, we are Australian.
