The Australian Music Centre notes that this composition is historical and may contain some words or terms used in relation to Indigenous peoples, references to culture and/or content which could be considered offensive or distressing. These words and/or content reflect the attitude of the period in which they were written and/or that of the composer(s) who may not have obtained correct permissions for use of Indigenous Cultural Intellectual Property (ICIP). The Australian Music Centre acknowledges the rights of Indigenous peoples to protect, control and develop their cultural expressions and intellectual property and warns this composition contains ICIP belonging to Indigenous groups across Australia and the Torres Strait Islands.
