Lyrics
I was born down by the water
Raised among the trees
Running through the White Gums
With the bush fire on the breeze
Learned to see a light in life
In a culture of the wise
And I let it seep under my skin
And I found it no surprise to find
Love within my soul
Love within my songs
Love for Noongar Boodja baby
Cause its the land I'm on
She heals you with her dreaming
Like a mother to a child
And you find in her belonging
Baby let yourself run wild
Listen to her secrets
They fly in on the sun
They live out in The Dreamtime
Yea, that's when it begun
You'll find love with your soul
Love within your songs
Love for Noongar Boodja baby
cause its the land your on
Who cares where you're from
No matter what your kin
The spirit of this land here baby
It doesn't see your skin
Brothers and my sisters
Feel the Noongar vibes
Upon this Noongar Boodja
We can all be one tribe
Love within our souls
Love within our songs
Love for Noongar Boodja baby
cause its the land we're on
