[00:00:26] The Morning Star paled slowly

[00:00:31] The Cross hung low to the sea

[00:00:36] And down the shadowy reaches

[00:00:40] The tide came swirling free

[00:00:45] The lustrous purple blackness of

[00:00:49] The soft Australian night

[00:00:54] Waned in the gray awakening

[00:00:59] That heralded the light

[00:01:13] Still in the dying darkness

[00:01:18] Still in the forest dim

[00:01:22] The pearly dew of the dawning

[00:01:26] Clung to each giant limb

[00:01:30] Till the sun came up from ocean

[00:01:36] Red with the cold sea mist

[00:01:40] And smote on the limestone ridges

[00:01:44] And the shining tree-tops kissed

[00:02:09] Then the fiery Scorpion vanished

[00:02:13] The magpie's note was heard

[00:02:17] And the wind in the she-oak wavered

[00:02:22] And the honeysuckles stirred

[00:02:27] The airy golden vapour

[00:02:32] Rose from the river breast

[00:02:36] The kingfisher came darting out

[00:02:40] Of his crannied nest

[00:02:44] And the bulrushes and reed-beds

[00:02:49] Put off their sallow gray

[00:02:54] And burnt with cloudy crimson

[00:02:58] At dawning of the day

[00:03:07] The Morning Star paled slowly

[00:03:12] The Cross hung low to the sea

[00:03:16] And down the shadowy reaches

[00:03:20] The tide came swirling free

[00:03:24] The lustrous purple blackness of

[00:03:28] The soft Australian night

[00:03:33] Waned in the gray awakening

[00:03:38] That heralded the light
