About this listen

The Native-Born is Rudyard Kipling in full, booming voice—an ode to homeland, heritage, and the fierce pride of those raised under blazing southern skies.

Through vivid imagery and pulsing rhythm, Kipling toasts the people of the far-flung British colonies: the “Sons of the Golden South,” the settlers and workers who carved their lives into vast prairies, tin-roofed towns, and coastlines battered by sun and sea.

With its rolling cadence and sweeping scope, the poem celebrates the land that shapes a person—the cradle that defines their loyalty, their labor, and their identity. From verandas glowing in moonlight to dusty plains alive with color and heat, The Native-Born blends nostalgia, rugged beauty, and unshakable pride.

Narrated with rich clarity by Phil Thames, this performance brings Kipling’s celebratory toast to life, honoring the people, places, and spirit that shaped a generation.

A stirring tribute. A timeless anthem. A salute to the land that calls you home.
