Y.o Storm clouds rising, storm clouds forming
The country is still, Gayku Mawuymana Watharrakarr Djunu? gu? u

Storm clouds rising, storm clouds covering the land
Storm clouds Mayawungarri Mayawuku Galapunbarri separating
Oh my fathers, on my grandparents
storm clouds why do you separate, why do you form?
Storm clouds covering the country, heading towards

Heading towards the Mali-Wotjawuy, Gapiny Dharrapa? an

Oh my father, on my brandparents

*The Wuku? storm clouds are images of Gurrumul's mother, the Gälpu people.
