Wrapped In Paper

A gift is wrapped in paper

Embellished in silver and gold

Laced with love and lined with care

Into something that'll make a man’s heart fold

For a gift is given out of love

With a sacrifice of a small part of ourselves 

To ignite the light in a loved one's eyes

Hear the passion ignite their bells

A gift is given to establish connection

Just as that done with the gift of Our Land

It’s the Dharawhal country and connection to people 

that link us hand in hand

It’s forever rooted in our spirit

A gift that gives us identity

Laced with love and lined with care

It’s the connection and spiritual identity

This gift doesn't come in wrapped paper

For the land and waters are enough

It has ignited a connection to Country for generations

And now the gift is addressed to us.
