Australia has transformed single word in its public song of devotion to reflect what the Prime Minister called "the soul of solidarity" and the nation's Indigenous populace.

Executive Scott Morrison on New Years Eve reported that the second line of the hymn, Advance Australia Fair, has been changed from "For we are youthful and free" to "For we are one and free." . The change produced results Friday.

"The time has come to guarantee this incredible solidarity is reflected all the more completely in our public hymn," he stated, adding that Australia was the "best multicultural country on Earth." "While Australia as an advanced country might be moderately youthful, our nation's story is old, similar to the narratives of the numerous First Nations people groups whose stewardship we appropriately recognize and regard," Morrison said.

"In the soul of solidarity, it is just correct that we guarantee our public hymn mirrors this fact and shared appreciation." Minister for Indigenous Australians Ken Wyatt said in an explanation that he had been gotten some information about the change and had given it his help.

Wyatt, the principal Indigenous Australian chosen to the government Parliament's lower house, said the single word change was "little in nature yet critical in reason." "It is an affirmation that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander societies go back 65,000 years," he said.

The change comes under two months after New South Wales state Premier Gladys Berejiklian communicated uphold for Indigenous Australians who said the public song of devotion didn't reflect them and their set of experiences.

College of South Wales law educator Megan Davis, a Cobble lady from the Barrungam country in southwest Queensland state, reprimanded the absence of interview with Indigenous individuals about the change.
