Australia Hriday Khuliya Duliya Duliya
Words and music by Sri Chinmoy
Lyrics:
Australia Australia Australia
Hriday khuliya duliya duliya
Janai tomai sneha bhara priti
Tumi ar ami ekatar giti
Translation:
Australia, Australia, Australia!
I have kept my heart-door wide open.
While swinging in rhapsody, self-amorous trance,
I am offering you my affection-flooded love.
A oneness-song you and I eternally are.
[Composed by Sri Chinmoy on the occasion of his 19th Western flute anniversary. Sri Chinmoy offered his prayerful gratitude to its source, Australia, where he first learned to play the flute, and also to his super-excellent audience: kangaroo-kingdom.]

Sri Chinmoy gives a private organ recital at Hallgrimskirkja — the Church of Hallgrimur — in Reykjavik, Iceland.
