Emblems of storm and danger,
Spindrift and mountain stern,
Plants that welcome the stranger
Seaweed, tussock, and fern.
Known to the world-wide ranger,
Who sailed on the Never Return,
Emblems of storm and danger
Flax and tussock and fern.
Plants that welcome the stranger,
Sea-swept and driven astern,
Beloved by the wide-world ranger
Seaweed, tussock, and fern.
