The owl is wise
The fox clever
The burro stubborn
The puppy dog never
Cats meow
Snakes hiss
Cows moo
Goldfish kiss
Kangas jump
Eagles soar
Bunnies hop
A walrus snores
Gerbils are messy
Who'll clean up
If you buy me a rabbit
I may eat it for sup

Do you hear the magpies chortle
As the sun rises over the hills
Do you see a koala in a gum tree
As the wind rattles the leaves
Do you feel the sun on your neck
As the summer sun reaches high
Do you see the dust across the sky
As the dry takes hold of the red earth
Do you see the kangas and emus bound
As the cool of the evening settles the earth
Do you love this land with all your heart
As one who was blessed with Australia .
