“There are two ways – bad way and good way

We are trying to help the girls and boys choose good way

Become leaders

We don’t want to see old people digging graves for young people

Old people crying for young people

Young people should cry for old people

They should be digging grave for old people

To see young people healthy and strong

That’s why we are doing this work

I say to them: ‘Mamuy\uru walmiya ga yol\uthiyana - Come out of the dark, and be a real Yolngu’”.
