Ngadhi guuga led me here

Gundungurra

Ngadhi guuga led me here

to this country

ngadhi maaraa raised me here

ngadhi bamali bamali shared their knowledge with me

ngadhi dhirrangal nganhalgu mudyigarndhi

ngadhi bila reminds me of this ngurra

I stomp on this ngurra with my tiddahs

and djarmibis, aunties and uncles

we wake up our ancestors to watch us 

carry on their traditions

I care for this ngurra and this ngurra cares for me

the ngurra heals me and i try to heal the ngurra

I’ll always be a proud koori.

My goanna led me here

to this country

my mum raised me here

my Aunties shared their knowledge with me

my Elders are important to me

My river reminds me of this Country

I stomp on this Country with my sisters

and brothers, Aunts and Uncles

we wake up our ancestors to watch us 

carry on their traditions

I care for this Country and this Country cares for me

the Country heals me and I try to heal the Country

I’ll always be a proud koori.
