Whispering Mysteries

Australian Stars are shining in a southern night, beating with a heart streaming with no fright Visions in a land that first made up the dream, all that you can see is not what it may seem Mysteries in a place where no white men pass, walking in a wilderness seeping with years past Emus range along loping with a stride kangaroos are bouncing head held up in pride Crocodiles our dinosaurs lurking in the murk don’t you go a swimming so you don’t get hurt Whispers in the rocks making blood ice cold, shivers in a night shaking legs do hold Eerie are the plains echoed life imports, bits of mystical memory flowing through they sort Religions of all colours and faces of all hues, meeting hand to hand they fly across the blue Filling up with culture from many different lands, mixing into magic with the joining of our hands Filling to the brim pride does steel our backs, but helping other lands our army changes tack Dancing with the stars or singing to the moon, we will always strive but singing our own tune
