Ngarrindjeri Woman

Ruby Hunter, 2004

I am Ngarrindjeri Woman
And I'm proud of who I am
Ngarrindjeri Woman native to this traditional land
In our mother's land
Our mother's land (x2)

And when they took us all away
Prayed for us not to stray
Prayed upon our mother's land
While we were locked away
In our mother's land
Our mother's land (x2)

I am Ngarrindjeri Woman
And I stand so proud and tall
I remember stories when I was a little girl
In our mother's land
Our mother's land (x2)

I am Ngarrindjeri Woman
And I'm still here today
To carry on our culture
In the Ngarrindjeri Woman business ways
In our mother's land
Our mother's land (x2)
