English and Latin text
I hear the land calling:
terra, terra
I hear the land calling me
terra australis: non est terra incognita
I hear the land calling me
To walk on ochre soil under starry skies
A million days I saw the sunrise
And a million nights I danced
I hear the land calling me
Terra, grandis terra australis.
