¶Lyrics / Text

A song unto the Heroes On land and on the sea, Who fought the fight for Truth and Right And won us liberty. The countless hearts courageous That since our Island rose Have laid life down for her renown And overwhelmed her foes. All hail to them, all hail to them Where'er at rest they lie; Though time departs, within our hearts Their names shall never die! Through faint and far off ages To this our present day Those dauntless ones 'neath many suns For her have passed away; Hve given their very life-blood And found, by land and sea, Death and the grave, to shield and save Her honour fair and free! All hail to them, all hail to them, Their names shall never die! A song then to the Heroes, Where'er they fought and fell, On foaming tide, on desert wide, Their souls around us dwell; Where'er their name they wrote there, In this or ages past, Upon the roll of Fame's proud scroll They're blazoned to the last! All hail to them, all hail to them Where'er at rest they lie; Though time departs, within our hearts Their names shall never die!
