A day of celebration

Of processions

Picnics

Citizenship ceremonies

Honours and awards

Cricket on the beach

Tennis on television

A day to proudly sing the national song

The familiar words

‘Beauty rich and rare’

‘We’ve boundless plains to share’

Making a mockery

Of refugees behind razor wire

Desperate for freedom

Hunger striking

Attempting suicide

Let us all combine

To Advance Australia - ‘Fair?’
