G’day
my Aussie friend. I wanted you to know
That
though you’ve travelled far away, you are thought of, does it show?
I love
my sunburnt country. It sits within my
heart,
And
when I have ventured elsewhere I feel it when we part.
The
eucalypts, the blossom trees, the beaches and the ranges,
The
animals, our magic birds, I love to show to strangers.
From
north to south, and east to west
No
matter what you seek, adventure, fun or simply rest,
There
is something here for all of us, oceans, mountains, sun and snow
Rivers,
jungles, rainforest too. So much to see
wherever you go.
The
classic foods like pav and lamb, our awesome toast and vegemite.
We
have a land so full of riches, an Aussie native’s birthright.
As you
have left our salty shores, and serve now far away
I
wrote this little ditty for you, it’s just my humble way
To
remind you of your home and wish you a Happy Australia Day
