Lyrics to the 2nd verse of Australia’s National Anthem

Click here to find out where to celebrate Australia Day in London.

IT doesn’t matter how patriotic you are, there is one thing most Australians will never know. In fact, it’s almost un-Australian to be able to recite the lines to the second verse of Advance Australia Fair.

After weeks and weeks of searching, we’ve managed to find the unknown lyrics. They were under the couch cushions.

It’s sung to the same tune as the first verse, so hopefully you don’t get too lost.

Verse 2
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.
