[00:15.586] Now the land is bare and brown
[00:23.652] And the wind blows empty cross the plains
[00:33.703] I have walked these plains for the whole memory of my soul
[00:46.461]
[00:57.066] And the soul of my mothers
[01:06.430] And the soul of my father’s fathers
[01:16.839] We have been the life of these plains, ghosts on these plains
[01:32.581] The wind once full
[01:41.293] The grass once green
[01:45.982] There were plants in our hands
[01:54.711] The time seems so long ago, now
[02:08.691] Where is the rich dark earth brown and moist?
[02:20.122] Where is the smell of rain dripping from gumtrees?
[02:32.544]
[02:57.252] Everything familiar is gone
[03:05.891] Everything I counted on
[03:14.834] I can’t run
[03:18.217] I can’t swim away from this land
[03:27.452] Where is the rich dark earth brown and moist?
[03:39.468] Where is the smell of rain dripping from gumtrees?
[03:51.124] Where are the billabongs?
[03:56.038] The long legged birds?
[04:01.402] Where are the rivers, they used to flow clear
[04:10.133] Now they’re eaten by mud
[04:17.608] Who will save us?
[04:37.125] From the rabbits?
