lirik lagu the seekers – i am 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 sh0r-s
i watched the tall ships come
for forty thousand years i’ve been
the first australian
i came upon the prison ship
bound down by iron chains
i fought the land
endured the lash
and waited for the rains
i’m a settler
i’m a farmers wife
on a dry and barren run
a convict, then a free man
i became australian
[verse 2: judith durham]
i’m the daughter of a digger
who sought the mother load
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
[chorus: durham & hitchc-ck]
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
[verse 3: russell hitchc-ck]
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
[verse 4: judith durham]
i’m the hot wind from the desert
i’m the black soil of the plain
i’m the mountains and the valleys
i’m the drowned 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
[chorus: durham & hitchc-ck]
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
[verse 5: mandawuy yunupingu]
i came from the dreaming
from the dusty red soil plains
i am the ancient heart
the keeper of the flame
i stood upon the rocky sh0r-s
i watched the tall ships come
for forty thousand years i’ve been the first australian
[chorus: all]
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
