Welcome to Gadigal land Welcome to Gadigal country Welcome to Gadigal land Welcome to Gadigal land Do you know our story? Welcome to Gadigal land Don't you bring your poison Don't you bring your grog Don't you bring your smallpox Sure to kill our mob Don't you bring your justice Don't you bring your gaols Don't you bring your armies Troopers on our trails So welcome to Gadigal land Welcome to Gadigal country Welcome to Gadigal land Welcome to Gadigal land Have you heard our history? Welcome to Gadigal land We don't need your convicts We don't need your thieves We don't need your squatters Or your emancipees Don't you dam our rivers Don't you fell our trees Don't you carve our wilderness Don't you net our seas In a land where time stands still In the land that's in a spell Every day since the day you came is a day of rage It's a day of rage Welcome to Gadigal land Wenyo wenyo wenyo! Welcome to Gadigal land Wenyo wenyo wenyo! Mudjaru ngaya wunyang Ngandu bayabawai, ngara Ngarawa darayawai, darimi Garamawaimi baya mudjin, wa? Birrongaingun ngarawan Always will be Gadigal land It's unfolding, you're unloading Your high and mighty prison ships It's unfolding, you're unloading Your high and mighty prison ships It's unfolding, you're unloading Your high and mighty prison ships We can live without your muskets We can live without your guns We can live without your strychnine We can live without your rum We can live without your gallows We can do without your chains We can do without the massacres The sorrow and the pain So welcome to Gadigal land Wenyo wenyo wenyo! Welcome to Wiradjuri land Welcome to Yorta Yorta land Welcome to Arrernte land Welcome to Mirning land Welcome to Gurindji land All of the lands All welcome
