Текст песни Wawirri (Ted Egan) с переводом

Tess Napaltjari and I wrote this next song

It’s half in English and half in Australian

The Warlpiri language from central Australia

The children out at Yuendumu

Loved to chase the kangaroo

The children are the Warlpiri

And the kangaroo’s name is Wawirri

Wawirri! Wawirri! Wawirri! Wawirri!

Wawirri

The children out at Yuendumu

Loved to chase the emu too

The children are the Warlpiri

And the emu’s name is Yanngkirri

Yanngkirri! Yanngkirri! Yanngkirri! Yanngkirri!

Yanngkirri

The children out at Yuendumu

Loved to eat goanna stew

The children are the Warlpiri

And the goanna’s name is

Let’s all sing the song right through

Starting with the kangaroo

The kangaroo’s name is Wawirri

So all together now 1, 2, 3

Wawirri

Let’s all sing the song right through

Don’t forget the emu too

The emu’s name is Yanngkirri

So all together now 1, 2, 3

Yanngkirri

Let’s all sing the song right through

Don’t forget the goanna stew

The goanna’s name is

So all together now 1, 2, 3
