  1. My Country Dorothea MacKellar

  2. Explanation The poem “My Country” by Dorothy McKellar is an iconic and symbolic Australian poem by a young Australian woman. It describes the Australian culture, the Australian landscape and the Australian way of life. It is a very patriotic piece of work and exceedingly famous among many Australians. It is a poem that requires the reader to read between the lines, as many lines may have more than one meaning. There is a regular rhythm and its patriotism is one of the reasons the poem has risen in popularity. You can say the poem was written out of love for her country as it was written while the author was homesick in England. The poem is a famous piece of Australian history and its 2nd Stanza sums up Australia in one of the best ways known.

  3. Chinese Verse 1 外地和矮林的爱，绿色和灰色通道，有序树林和花园在你的身体里流淌。强烈的爱灰蓝色的距离，布朗流和软，暗淡的天空 -我知道，但是不能分享，我的爱并非如此。

  4. Chinese Verse 1 The love of field and coppice Of green and shaded lanes, Of ordered woods and gardens Is running in your veins. Strong love of grey-blue distance, Brown streams and soft, dim skies - I know, but cannot share it, My love is otherwise.

  5. Italian Second Verse 2 Amo un paese bruciato dal sole,Una terra di pianura spazzamento,Di catene montuose a brandelli,Di siccità e piogge torrenziali.Amo i suoi orizzonti lontani,Mi piace il suo gioiello del mare,La sua bellezza e il suo terrore -La terra ampio marrone per me!

  6. Italian Second Verse 2 I love a sunburnt country, A land of sweeping plains, Of rugged mountain ranges, Of droughts and flooding rains, I love her far horizons, I love her jewel-sea, Her beauty and her terror - The wide brown land for me!

  7. Arabic Third Verse وصارخ الأبيض الغابات الدائري نبحت،المأساوية للقمر الكل ،الجبال الياقوت مغشى،الذهب الساخنة الصمت من الظهر،خضراء متشابكة من فرشحيث رشيق النباتات لفائف،وبساتين الفاكهة سطح شجرة، قمم،وسرخس التربة دافئة الظلام.

  8. Arabic Third Verse The stark white ring-barked forests, All tragic to the moon, The sapphire-misted mountains, The hot gold hush of noon, Green tangle of the brushes Where the lithe lianas coil, And orchids deck the tree-tops, And ferns the warm dark soil.

  9. Greek Fourth Verse Πυρήνας της καρδιάς μου, χώρα μου!Ανελέητος γαλάζιο του ουρανού της,Όταν, άρρωστος στην καρδιά, γύρω μαςΒλέπουμε τα βοοειδή πεθαίνουν -Αλλά συγκεντρωθούν στη συνέχεια, τα γκρίζασύννεφα,Και μπορούμε να ευλογήσει και πάλιΤο drumming του στρατού,Η σταθερή βροχή μούσκεμα.

  10. Greek Fourth Verse Core of my heart, my country! Her pitiless blue sky, When, sick at heart, around us We see the cattle die - But then the grey clouds gather, And we can bless again The drumming of an army, The steady soaking rain.

  11. Hindi Fifth Verse मेरा दिल, मेरे देश की कोर!इंद्रधनुष सोने की भूमि,बाढ़ और आग और अकाल के लिएउसने हमें तिगुना वापस भुगतान करता है.प्यासे खेतों में,देखो, बहुत दिनों के बाद,अनभ्यास की फिल्मी घूंघटहम के रूप में वह घने टकटकी.

  12. Hindi Fifth Verse Core of my heart, my country! Land of the rainbow gold, For flood and fire and famine She pays us back threefold. Over the thirsty paddocks, Watch, after many days, The filmy veil of greenness That thickens as we gaze...

  13. English Last Verse An opal-hearted country,A wilful, lavish land –All you who have not loved her,You will not understand –Though earth holds many splendours,Wherever I may die,I know to what brown countryMy homing thoughts will fly.

  14. By Jacob and Simon From Australia
