Notes

  • Dedication: To England, dear Land of my birth, And to Australia, beloved land of my adoption. Ivy Moore. Sydney, 1940.

    Here's a toast to the Lads in Blue, Men of the King's navy, Gallant and bold and brave and true, Here's to the Rulers of the sea, Who gave the invader cause to rue, And kept the seaways safe and free, Here's a toast to the lads in Blue, men of the King's Navy! Ivy Moore.
