SONGS OF AUSTRALIA (Stan Wakefield)
When summer days are long Then comes a rowdy song Down by the burrawong, Fern-like and shady.
High in the kurrajong, Far up the billabong, I hear a currawong Answer his lady.
Wattles of golden hue, 'Lowries of red and blue Gleam in the morning dew, Bushland's regalia —
Hark to the merry crew, King parrot, cockatoo, Lyre bird, that sing the true Songs of Australia.
