Текст песни I Am Australian (Samantha Jade) с переводом

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

There are no words of comfort

That can hope to ease the pain

Of losing homes and loved ones

The memories will remain

Within the silent tears

You’ll find the strength to carry on

You’re not alone, we are with you

We are 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

There are so many heroes whose stories must be told

They fought the raging fires of hell

And saved so many souls

From the ashes of despair our towns will rise again!

We mourn your loss, we will rebuild

We are 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!
