Yirrmala

Miyamala matjala, Ngathiya Djanngala, Liyawayma Marngarrngura, Nurmbernydja Buwakurru.

The vision of tomorrow shines, like the mirror on the wall

cast an image of my people dancing and survival was the law.

The shadows of the clouds move on, race by as I close my eyes

making shapes of our great ancestors, as the daylight leaves the sky.

Miyamala matjala, Ngathiya Djanngala, Liyawayma Marngarrngura, Nurmbernydja Buwakurru.

Sometimes I think we're poor boys here, got no money got no job

and at times when I might turn to drink, I lose my head but then I start to think.

Miyamala matjala, Ngathiya Djanngala, Liyawayma Marngarrngura, Nurmbernydja Buwakurru.

Going to pick it up - lift it up.

Going to pick it up - lift it up.

Lift the game a bit - pick it up.

Going to lift it up - pick it up.

A visão do amanhã brilha, como o espelho na parede

refletindo a imagem do meu povo dançando, e a sobrevivência era a lei.

As sombras das nuvens se movem, passam rápido enquanto fecho os olhos

formando figuras de nossos grandes ancestrais, enquanto a luz do dia deixa o céu.

Miyamala matjala, Ngathiya Djanngala, Liyawayma Marngarrngura, Nurmbernydja Buwakurru.

Às vezes eu penso que somos meninos pobres aqui, sem grana, sem emprego

e em momentos que eu poderia recorrer à bebida, perco a cabeça, mas então começo a pensar.

Vou pegar isso - levantar.

Vou pegar isso - levantar.

Levantar o jogo um pouco - pegar isso.

Vou levantar - pegar isso.
