The Moyne To The Pacific

By Griffith Island dark deep and slow The waters of the Moyne to the Pacific flow By old Port Fairy with claims to renown As a holiday and music festival Town The age of the Moyne anyone does not know It was very old long before the birth of the first pale eyed crow An old River of South West Victoria that has inspired song, story and rhyme Was centuries old before the Dreaming Time Though no visible memories left for to honor their fame South West Victoria's first people for the Moyne would have had another name And though nobody knows where their last remains lay Legends and myths are living of them today But long after the last human being from South West Victoria has gone The Moyne to the Pacific will be rippling on.
