NEW ZEALAND! HURRAY !
((AU rights reserved.) Here is a land that all may love, New Zealand, fair and free ; Domed by the Southern sky above, \ Lapped by an azure sea: Our girls are Roses of the South, Our lads .are true for aye ; Sp toast New Zealand I Dear New Zealand 1 ! New Zealand ! Hurray ! Here is' a Tui in the tree, A Weka on the plain ;■ And in the fern a shrill Kiwi, And thro’ the Northland main, The Kauri lifts his tow’ring head, And thus we ever say : Here’s Old New Zealand I Dear New Zealand 1 ! New Zealand ! Hurray !
Here is a mother by the fire, A sweetheart at the stile; And when from home away we roam, For many a weary mile, We’ll think of eyes that oft are moist, And sad hearts that were gay ; So ’orst New Zealand ! Dear New Zealand ! New Zealand! Hurray!
We have no troubles of our own, But. bonny latfs have died, ’ Tnat Britain’s cubs shall aye he known, Throughout the Old Earth wide. Let t'his cry sound when Empire’s foe gnal l hasten to the fr^,y: Here’s Old New Zealand ! Dear New Zealand ! New Zealand ! Hurray ! —D. Forrest. No. 7, Church Street, Devonport.
