Listen to a new song about Mt Kosciuszko, performed by John Hospodaryk and recorded just a few days ago in the Avalon "Paradise Studio". We'll sing it together on Mt Kosciuszko on Friday 18th April 2008
My mountain Kosciuszko, is YOUR mountain too, It’s a mountain for all Aussies, and visitors too, Whatever you do and whatever you believe, It’s a mountain that reminds us that we're lucky to be free!
It’s a mountain which unites us And excites us from within It’s a place where no-one cares about the colour of your skin
This mountain invites us, in a very special way It’s the spirit of Kosciuszko that lives on to this day!
When the snow has all melted And the sun warms the rocks When the pretty mountain flowers show off their coloured frocks, and turn their rounded happy faces up to the endless summer skies Touched by the gentle wings of a heavenly host of butterflies And the water trickles joyfully into the many mountain streams The chilly winter winds are no more than a hint of gentle breeze.
That’s when you grab your sturdy shoes and the trusted old backpack A snack or two and water and you head off up that mountain track Right up to the summit where you''ll sit an hour or two Where you'll leave behind your troubles and your dreams are part of you.
So say it - KOSCIUSZKO! Sing it - KOSCIUSZKO! Go up to Kosciuszko You'll be surprised at what you see! So shout it KOSCIUSZKO! KOSCIUSZKO, KOSCIUSZKO It’s a mountain that reminds us that We're lucky to be free
