Across the plains one christmas night 3 drovers riding blithe and gay. Looked up and saw a starry light more radiant than the Milky Way And on their hearts such wonder fell They sang Noel noel noel, noel noel noel The black swans flew across the sky The wild dog called across the plain A starry lustre blazed on high still echoed on a heavenly strain And still they sang, those drovers 3 Noel noel, noel noel noel The sir was dry with summer heat And smoke was on the yellow moon But from the heavens faint and sweet, Came floating down a wonderous tone And as they heard they sang Noel those drovers 3, Noel noel, noel noel noel
