On the track we hear Dorothea, as she was recorded by Hazel de Berg, back in 1958.
Harry Young was commissioned to write a song that went with Dorothea's recording, with permission from the copyright owners.
This track is off his ambum, "Australia My country - 20 Songs about Australia by Australians".
It's avaliable through the ABC stores.

G'day Maureen.

103, you poor bastard, you lived and died alone.
103, you were not regarded worthy to atone
103, for for the sins, the sins, you did not own.
I want to call you brother, 103--I love you.
