Turtle came up from the depths of the ocean
Rising from the ocean was a giant dolphin, Miyapunu.
Crying tears while singing the song
From the faraway land of Burralgu
Waters spurt from her head
She hit herself against the waves
Swaying to and fro
Travelling through the still waters
So nice and calm.
Slowly and calming, singing,
"I am Djilwuywuy Turtle, I am Guykarri."
Diving silently through deep water
Towards the great ocean
This Dolphin is carrying.
She has a child.
Swimming, swim faster
I stray too far from your heart.
Calling through water
Will you hear me? Come find me.
Swim through the water
I'm too small, the Ocean's larger.
Catch me. I'm drowning.
I thought you were beside me.

Whispered listenings
'Round a corner
Shifting mysterings
Silent murmurs
Wade through hearings
Wild uncovered
Secrets glistening
Caught in my -
Slowly, sudden
Rippling, rustling
Ancient hissings
Future rumblings
Clear a little moment
Hear its colour
Hold a little moment
Wait for my -
Glipse of magic
Maybe, wonder
Can't remember
Maybe thunder
Thoughts that amble
Voices flutter
Would I hear you?

Sleep, sleep, my child, sleep, sleep.
Sleep, sleep, my little one, sleep, sleep.
Gayku the hanging cloud
Floats above the thick Rainforest
Hanging there in a sweet, deep sleep.
The spirit goes up high
To the clouds that hang
The clouds known as Gayku.
Sleep now,
Under the Wulminda tree
Thick foliage provides a cool, dark shade.
Sleep under the shade
Of the Wulminda tree
Then say, "It has become night".
