On the 25th day of April,
We celebrate Anzac Day...
It’s time for us to remember,
Those who have passed away...
They sacrificed their lives,
In the pursuit of freedom for fellow man...
From the beaches of Gallipoli,
To the mountains of Afghanistan...
It represents the heroes,
From the present and the past...
Those who put their mates first,
Instead of leaving them to last...
To all those Anzac heroes,
We are always in your debt...
Your courage was outstanding,
It's one thing we won't forget...
This is the spirit of the Anzac’s,
We have a little in us all...
You need to dig down really deep,
And you’ll soon be standing tall...
So let us all be thankful,
And take some time out to reflect...
This land we call Australia,
With their lives they will protect...
