The many natural wonders That Australia has to show Mysteriously appearing So many years ago Looking up onto the Snowy’s From the lakes of Jindabyne You appreciate the beauty That will stand the test of time From Katoomba falls to Orphan Rock The three sisters standing tall The beautiful Blue Mountains Where Mother Nature gave her all Down south of the border Along the coastline you will see The apostles and the Loch Ard Gorge Formed by limestone naturally The Grampian to the Dandenong’s Buchan Caves to Wilsons Prom It makes you wonder when and where This great beauty came from Travelling further West You will wonder what you’ve found The Blue Lake of Mt Gambier The colourful Wilpena Pound Over the Nullarbor you’ll go Cross the Great Australian Bight Flinders Ranges far behind you Slowly fading out of sight On through the Sterling Ranges Where the wildflowers abound Jagged peaks of Granite Shooting upward from the ground Then to the Red Centre The most wondrous place of all Its colours ever changing With every day’s nightfall The Olgas up to Arnhem Land Devils Marbles, Uluru Katherine Gorge to Mataranka Standley Chasm, Kakadu Over to the Sunshine State The holiday makers dream The Barrier Reef, The Daintree The National Parks of Tambourine The South Pacific Islands Blue Waters and white Sands To the tropical rainforests Which are further north, inland Then down to the Apple Isle With its historic convict past Cradle Mountain, Derwent Valley Russell Falls and Tasman’s Arch The many natural wonders So majestic and so grand Make it easy to appreciate This great Australian Land Elise L Turnedge 1997
