Ngaa felt my walar on the bullwool bark
at the bottom of a gayan oak kundu.
The kaiyoong ngarawan softly crashing against
the rocks as the budjaang were quietly yanggum.
And the djirabud scattering through the
mundah.
The wuri was shining on my wullahnung and it was
comforting.

I felt my head on the strong bark
at the bottom of a big oak tree.
The shore softly crashing against
the rocks as the birds were quietly chirping.
And the lizards scattering through the
bush.
The sun was shining on my head and it was
comforting.
