On September fourth, in 'thirty-nine's call
New Zealand's declaration, in the war's sprawl
Governor-General Galway, signing tall
Into the fray, answering the call

Down under's resolve, Menzies' decree
Australia at war, the world to see
Pszczyna's end, in victory's plea
In echoes of conflict, history's plea

Częstochowa's grief, a darkened stain
German soldiers' actions, inhuman pain
1,140 souls lost, in the rain
Facing the horror, in the war's bane

Down under's resolve, Menzies' decree
Australia at war, the world to see
Pszczyna's end, in victory's plea
In echoes of conflict, history's plea

Pszczyna's end, in victory's plea
In echoes of conflict, history's plea

Nepal's call, in the thunder's might
War declared on Germany, in the night
Egypt's decision, breaking the light
In the diplomatic shadows, a flight

Down under's resolve, Menzies' decree
Australia at war, the world to see
Pszczyna's end, in victory's plea
In echoes of conflict, history's plea

On September fourth, the stories unfold
In the annals of time, both brave and bold
From declarations to tragedy told
In remembrance and honour, their courage we hold
