River flows
rock is solid
hill stands still
Country turns seasons
I come – walk on land
belong to Country
I grow – listen as
voices speak and fire burn
ashes scatter back on Country
I change – age with time
river flows
hill stands strong
I pass – wind scatters my dust
Country takes me back inside
hill stands tall
rock stays solid
river flows strong.
