My Land This is my land I love it so Just as much as you. But you say I don’t belong here That I can never be true blue. You tell me this is your land it’s beauty yours to claim. my ancestry you disregard but isn’t yours the same. This land was once a barren place untouched by all mankind. Your people came from o'er the sea Just the same as mine. We both have fought to keep her free our love will never bend. It’s history forged in mateship lives lost her to defend. Against those who would defile her as they tried in days of old.. We cannot change the history but her futures ours to mould. We now come from many countries from places near and far. Bringing with us differing cultures and that’s what makes us who we are. We cannot change what happened in the past for there can be no turning back. But our lives are joined to mould the future for those who follow down the track. Six generations now precede me and still my family line does swell. I respect your history and your dreamtime so should you do with mine as well.. So don’t tell me that I don’t belong that this is not my land. Don’t try and change the things I cherish and just extend a loving hand. And join with me to celebrate for both, this is our land of birth. Just be proud that we all live in the greatest place on earth.
