Djilawurr Lyrics

Yä rirrakayyurruna Djilawurr manda, Gongunga
Rongiyinana barrawalayu dharayarayu
Yä bunbunga Djangadjanga, gulurrpungana

Yä ngäthina, yä ngäthina, Djilawurr manda gulurrpungana

Gundawu wätthurruna dirrmalawu ngurukuna
Rirrkay’yurruna wäyin Djangadjanga
Rongiyinana Bekullili dhärringlili

Yä ngäthina, yä ngäthina, Djilawurr manda gulurrpungana

Djilawurr, wo..o gulurrpuma ngunha marrtji wäyin

E..e rirrakay’yuna ngunha marrtji Watjpalnga

Wo ngurukuna wätthun ngunha marrtji dirrmalawuna
E..e birrpuma ngunha marrtji wäyin Rrumburanguru

Nguparana gurrwilngayu dharayarayu
Ya Gurrikurri Rrumburayu Galaniniyu
Rirrakay’yurruna Djilawurr manda gombunga
Rongiyinana wängalili dhärringlili
Yä ngäthina, yä ngäthina, Djilawurr manda gulurrpungana
Djilawurr
Djudukurrk giw giw
