Flying Wedge-Tail Eagle

See the eagle soar on high
Against the Australian azure sky
I wonder what your eyes will see
To the horizon as the earth meets the sea

Royalty of the air of all seen
Diving down on prey in death so clean
Then on a dead wood branch standing
Alert keeping watch so demanding

Who will challenge you
To outlast the fight through
And then soar again in a cloudless sky
As you conquer the world flying so high.
