Heraldry Australia

Etymology of the name of the country: From the 'unknown southern land' (Latin terra australis incognita). The area was named by early European researchers who believed that the Australian mainland was much larger than they had so far discovered. Traveler Matthew Flinders (1774-1814), who first explored the Australian coast and made his map, used the term 'Australia' in his work.

Text of the hymn

Australians all let us rejoice,
For we are young and free;
We’ve golden soil and wealth for toil,
Our home is girt by sea;
Our land abounds in Nature’s gifts
Of beauty rich and rare;
In history’s page, let every stage
Advance Australia fair!
In joyful strains then let us sing,
«Advance Australia fair!»

Beneath our radiant southern Cross,
We’ll toil with hearts and hands;
To make this Commonwealth of ours
Renowned of all the lands;
For those who’ve come across the seas
We’ve boundless plains to share;
With courage let us all combine
To advance Australia fair.
In joyful strains then let us sing
«Advance Australia fair!»

перевод

Австралийцы, всё к счастью для нас
Здесь, где юность с свободой цветут.
Дом в оправе морей наш - бесценный алмаз -
Ты даешь нам богатства за труд.
Край – дар звёзд, сквозь века свет глаз их,
Книги волн, трав, камней здесь собрали и
Со страниц их поет каждый штрих
Про цветенье Австралии.
Чтоб от радости петь, когда сердце кричит,
Расцветай, о Австралия.

Под сияющим Южным Крестом
Мы союз наций сплав возвели.
Здесь сердцами, руками, умом и трудом
Так, чтоб знали все страны земли.
Все, кто смог сквозь моря путь пробить
К безграничью равнин, обретали их,
Чтоб с отвагой сердец своих слить
К процветанью Австралии.
Чтоб от радости петь, когда сердце кричит,
Расцветай, о Австралия.
