In joyful strains the let us sing "Advance Australia fair!"

But it's true this is much better than our national anthem, but I think they are keeping it because it has been our national anthem for over 43 years. If this song was written in 1973 I think it would have definitely been our national anthem.

We were new here in 2004 just moved from U.A.E. as we are originally Indians but were living in U.A.E for 20 plus years and all kids were born and brought up there. When my eldest son was 18 yrs old and my husband decided to move some secure and good country for kids future...and so we decided to move to Australia, and we were here than on Business and investors Visa.. My youngest Daughter was than 7 yrs old and was in Grade 2, She attended her School, it was her first or second week in new School in Australia,.. and Teacher in Class was teaching them "THAT WE ARE ALL AUSTRALIAN, WE SHOULD RESPECT OUR COUNTRY, WE SHOULD LOVE OUR COUNTRY". and my Daughter told her Teacher ,I am not AN AUSTRALIAN, I was born in MID-EAST, I AM AN INDO-ARAB GIRL....WHY SHOULD I LOVE THIS COUNTRY, MY FRIENDS ARE ALL IN MID-EAST,...I AM ALL ALONE IN HERE,....I HATE TO BE HERE, her Teacher called me and told me about what had happened in the classroom, I explained her ,we have just moved here, she misses everything she had left back, KINDLY PLEASE help me and my Daughter.. The Teacher was so much AMAZINGLY GOOD, UNDERSTANDING my situation , she immediately told OK "MRS R" you don't worry we will take care of this, WE are TRAINED to handle this SITUATION and she promised me "YOUR DAUGHTER WILL START CALLING HERSELF SOON I AM AN AUSTRALIAN GIRL." I THANKED HER, but was still worried how can I help my girl feel home here , BUT to my amaze when she came home from school, she was different and was so much HAPPY, telling me MOMMY my Teacher "MRS BROWN" have given me a singing part in my School Concert... I have to learn this SONG, come mother help me memorize this part of song... I told ok what's the song is show me... and this was the song. The words of this song made me cry.. .it made me ALSO feel that we belong here.. and made me love this country more n more n more forever.. "WE ARE ONE BUT WE ARE MANY AND FROM ALL THE LAND OF EARTH WE COME WE SHARE A DREAM AND SING WITH ONE VOICE "I AM , YOU ARE, WE ARE AUSTRALIAN" and really from that time my girl started making new Friends in school , she started to stay HAPPY.. I THANKED TO TEACHER AND TOLD HER I AM REALLY VERY GRATEFUL TO HER. I APPRECIATE HER KINDNESS.. she had given me so big huge PEACE of mind and soul... MAY SHE GETS ALL THE BLESSINGS OF GOD FOREVER N EVER FOR HER. .no words can thank her ... cant thank her in words... now my Girl is working with Bank full time and studying her masters and she is so happy ,calling her self a proud AUSTRALIAN GIRL... A seven years old girl is now 25 years old ...she don't even remember how was the Country where she was born, she call AUSTRALIA IS MY COUNTRY, AUSTRALIA IS MY HOME, AUSTRALIA IS ONLY LAND I KNOW IN THIS WORLD...

I have met many Australians in my long life and I have liked and respected every one of them. They are a very special breed. I also married one of them. She has sadly gone now.

This song makes me proud to be Australian
I came from the dream-time From the dusty red-soil plains I am the ancient heart The keeper of the flame I stood upon the rocky shores I watched the tall ships come For forty thousand years I've been The first Australian I came upon the prison ship Bowed down by iron chains I bought the land, endured the lash And waited for the rains I'm a settler, I'm a farmer's wife On a dry and barren run A convict, then a free man I became Australian I'm the daughter of a digger Who sought the mother lode The girl became a woman On the long and dusty road I'm a child of the Depression I saw the good times come I'm a bushie, I'm a battler I am Australian We are one, but we are many And from all the lands on earth we come We'll share a dream and sing with one voice "I am, you are, we are Australian" I'm a teller of stories I'm a singer of songs I am Albert Namatjira And I paint the ghostly gums I'm Clancy on his horse I'm Ned Kelly on the run I'm the one who waltzed Matilda I am Australian I'm the hot wind from the desert I'm the black soil of the plains I'm the mountains and the valleys I'm the drought and flooding rains I am the rock, I am the sky The rivers when they run The spirit of this great land I am Australian We are one, but we are many And from all the lands on earth we come We'll share a dream and sing with one voice "I am, you are, we are Australian" We are one, but we are many And from all the lands on earth we come We'll share a dream and sing with one voice "I am, you are, we are Australian" "I am, you are, we are Australian"

Die Stimme von Judith Durham erschlägt mich seit den 60er Jahren. Unglaublich!
G'day to everyone from QLD🙂❤️ My parents became citizens 40 years ago. We're proud to be Australian.
Respect to Aussies from an American. I've been saving up for 5 years to go to Australia and this song has helped me along the way - I'll see you in July! :)

LaVieEnRose so, were you pleased with your visit to our country?
I am an Indian. I have been lived here for 2 years. I couldn't forgot those beautiful days spend here with my hubby. I want to come back to Australia. I am not sure whether I will come back or not... But I will never forget Australian days. Love Australia🇦🇺
I love this song for me a11 Yr old australian I'm proud
This should be our national anthem. I am Croatian Volksdeutsche, but I was born in Wagga Wagga, New South Wales. I am an Australian and proud of it.
THIS SONG CAPTURES ALL OF US, IN UNIQUE VERSE AND WITH A UNIQUE POPULATION, WE ARE ALL AUSTRALIAN, NO MATTER WHERE WE CAME FROM.

I came from the dream-time, from the dusty red soil plains I am the ancient heart, the keeper of the flame. I stood upon the rocky shore, I watched the tall ships come. For forty thousand years I’ve been the first Australian. We are one, but we are many And from all the lands on earth we come We share a dream and sing with one voice: I am, you are, we are Australian I came upon the prison ship, bowed down by iron chains. I cleared the land, endured the lash and waited for the rains. I’m a settler, I’m a farmer’s wife on a dry and barren run A convict then a free man, I became Australian. We are one, but we are many And from all the lands on earth we come We share a dream and sing with one voice: I am, you are, we are Australian I’m the daughter of a digger who sought the mother lode The girl became a woman on the long and dusty road I’m a child of the depression, I saw the good times come I’m a bushy, I’m a battler, I am Australian We are one, but we are many And from all the lands on earth we come We share a dream and sing with one voice: I am, you are, we are Australian I’m a teller of stories, I’m a singer of songs I am Albert Namatjira, I paint the ghostly gums I am Clancy on his horse, I’m Ned Kelly on the run I’m the one who waltzed Matilda, I am Australian We are one, but we are many And from all the lands on earth we come We share a dream and sing with one voice: I am, you are, we are Australian I’m the hot wind from the desert, I’m the black soil of the plains I’m the mountains and the valleys, I’m the drought and flooding rains I am the rock, I am the sky, the rivers when they run The spirit of this great land, I am Australian We are one, but we are many And from all the lands on earth we come We share a dream and sing with one voice: I am, you are, we are Australian I am, you are, we are Australian. We are one .. We are many .. We are Australian!

Any Australian will always be my brother or sister ❤
We need to hear this song more often ❤
Cried as new migrant, hearing son sing, learned at Glenferrie Primary School, Hawthorn. Vic, in prep, 1998. Proud Aussie now. Thanks Australia for everything. God Bless you.
Everytime we sang this song in school assembly my eyes would well up with tears. There's an Aussie spirit in all of us.
Why am i here, i was just trying to listen to i still call Australia home, i don't wanna cry, i don't wanna cry, im gonna cry.
Hearing Waltzing Matilda always brings tears to my eyes, especially when it is sung by John Williamson. It reminds me of the two months I spent downunder after my wonderful wife died unexpectedly. The Aussies and the Kiwis are the most wonderful people on this earth. They are kind, compassionate and a lot of fun. They helped to bring me back to life. The last photo of the Sydney Opera House is also a sweet reminder. That is the view from my hotel room. It is where I fell in love with Cio-Cio-San, where I watched the fireworks announcing Butterfly’s marriage to Pinkerton. I don’t know how to thank you folks. To the Wallabies and Kiwis who read this, thank you so very much. I look forward to coming back.
I live in America and I was learning about Australia in class. They played the song for us and at the end of the song everyone was singing, "We are Australian!" And Amy, the only person in my class who was actually from Australian was like, "You're not Australian!" She had her own Q&A session, it was cool. :D
Anyone else feel sad/ashamed of the situation we are in now. Makes me sad. It’s so un Australian locking us up
