IMMIGRATION.


Are migrants proud Australians?

Our nation based on immigration,

One polyglot meld of humanity,

To Australia show fidelity,

Our nation of peaceful tolerance,

 People from Earth's shifting sands,

Living here in our Great Southern Land,

Deployment should not be our dance,

Nothing wrong with loyalty,

Patriotism our children's legacy,

---Great Southern Land,

All welcome to be Australians!
