Inspired by our ancestor’s ceremonies, we as Indigenous people hold our stories close to our hearts, as we stamp our feet into the earth… ‘Gundulla’ – We Dance’,
mother home, mother earth… ‘Gundulla – We Dance’ so Australia come all.
‘Gundulla – We Dance’…
Gundulla – We dance
Tjukurrpa – We hold our stories
Parna Yardarl – Mother Earth
Kurrangara – For you & me
Young man, young girl
Listen to what is said
I want you to learn my stories
From the land that our ancestors led
Blue skies, red earth
Unique & bountiful
Listen to the desert calling
A song so beautiful
Gundulla Tjina Gundulla
Nguleeba Tjukurrpa Ngayaku Tjukurrpa
Nooda Nguleegu Parna Yardal Yabu Parna Yardarl
Kurrangara Nooda Nguleegu Australia Pithaku
(English Translation)
We dance stamping our feet, we dance
My story, we hold our stories
Mother earth home, Mother Earth
Ceremony for you & me, Australia come all…
Kulila Gundulla Tjina Gundulla

(English Translation)
Listen, there’s dancing, people dancing
While singing our story, we hold our stories
She is our mother earth, share our stories…
