Take me onto culture
Yirrmal djungguwan
Back to culture
Take me onto culture
Yirrmal djungguwan
When you're in line with beat
And you're feeling so fine
And your feet can't help but move
Join the circle of men
Women, children and friends
In the rhythm of love
Gaywa gaywa gaywa gaywa
Yirrmal djungguwan
Gaywa gaywa gaywa gaywa
Yirrmal djungguwan
The smile of a child
Sends a message of hope
Back to culture yeah
Beware of the storm
Of contradictions
The law is on my side
Gaywa gaywa gaywa gaywa
Yirrmal djungguwan...

And you're feeling so fine
And your feet can't help but move
Join the circle of men
Women children and friends
In the rhythm of love
Gaywa gaywa gaywa gaywa
