The
word for God Save the Queen
God save our gracious Queen, Long live our
noble Queen, God save the Queen! Send her victorious, Happy and
glorious, Long to reign over us, God save the Queen! |
O lord our God
arise, Scatter our enemies, And make them fall! Confound their knavish
tricks, Confuse their politics, On you our hopes we fix, God save the
Queen! |
Not in this
land alone, But be God's mercies known, From
shore to shore! Lord make the nations see, That men should brothers
be, And form one family, The wide world o'er |
From every latent
foe, From the assasin's blow, God save the Queen! O'er her thine arm
extend, For Britain's sake defend, Our mother, prince, and friend, God
save the Queen! |
Thy choicest gifts in store, On her be pleased to
pour, Long may she reign! May she defend our laws, And ever give us
cause, To sing with heart and voice, God save the Queen! |

sing Advance Australia Fair.

The
word for Waltzing Matilda
Oh there was once a swagman camped in the billabongs, Under
the shade of a Coolibah tree; And he sang as he looked at the old billy
boiling, 'Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.'
CHORUS: Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda, my
darling, Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me. Waltzing Matilda and heaving a water-bag, Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
Up came the jumbuck to drink at the waterhole, Up jumped the
swagman and grabbed him in glee; And he sang as he put him away in his tucker-bag, 'You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.' CHORUS
Up came the squatter a-riding his thoroughbred; Up came
policemen - one, two and three. 'Whose is the jumbuck you've got in the
tucker bag? You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with we.' CHORUS
Up sprang the swagman and jumped in the waterhole, Drowning
himself by the Coolibah tree; And his voice can be heard as it sings in the
billabongs, 'Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me?' CHORUS |
The
words for Gaudeamus Igitur
Original
Latin
Gaudeamus igitur Juvenes dum sumus Post
jucundum juventutem Post molestam senectutem Nos habebit humus.
Ubi sunt qui ante nos In mundo fuere? Vadite
ad superos Transite in inferos Hos si vis videre.
Vita nostra brevis
est Brevi finietur. Venit mors velociter Rapit nos atrociter Nemini parcetur.
Vivat academia Vivant professores Vivat membrum
quodlibet Vivat membra quaelibet Semper sint in flore.
Vivant omnes
virgines Faciles, formosae. Vivant et mulieres Tenerae amabiles Bonae laboriosae.
Vivant et republica et qui illam regit. Vivat nostra civitas, Maecenatum caritas Quae
nos hic protegit. Pereat tristitia, Pereant
osores. Pereat diabolus, Quivis antiburschius Atque irrisores.

English
Translation
Let us rejoice therefore While we are young. After a pleasant youth After a
troublesome old age The earth will have us.
Where are they Who were in the world before us? You may cross over to heaven You may go
to hell If you wish to see them.
Our life is brief It will be finished shortly. Death comes
quickly Atrociously, it snatches us away. No one is spared.
Long live the
academy! Long live the teachers! Long live each male student! Long live
each female student! May they always flourish!
Long live all maidens Easy and beautiful! Long
live mature women also, Tender and loveable And full of good labor.
Long live the State And the One who rules it! Long live our City And the charity of
benefactors Which protects us here!
Let sadness perish! Let haters perish! Let the devil perish! Let whoever is against our school Who laughs at it, perish!
