Fire

It filled the lungs 

Of the Gulbaru Gecko 

As he soundlessly slithered 

Right until he cheerlessly withered 

Perished 

 

His home destroyed 

All living things dead

A fire he could not avoid 

All animals fled

Run 

 

Flames kept rising 

Higher and higher 

Destroyed

 

Then the Ngunnawal mob came

They made it all right

Cool burning saved the day 

Saved the day

 

They taught us their way

Their way
