Welcome to Gadigal land Welcome to Gadigal country Welcome to Gadigal land Welcome to Gadigal land Do you know our story? Welcome to Gadigal land Don’t you bring your poison Don’t you bring your grog Don’t you bring your smallpox Sure to kill our mob Don’t you bring your justice Don’t you bring your gaols Don’t you bring your armies Troopers on our trails So welcome to Gadigal land Welcome to Gadigal country Welcome to Gadigal land Welcome to Gadigal land Have you heard our history? Welcome to Gadigal land We don’t need your convicts We don’t need your thieves We don’t need your squatters Or your emancipees Don’t you dam our rivers Don’t you fell our trees Don’t you carve our wilderness Don’t you net our seas In the land where time stands still In the land that’s in a spell Every day since the day you came is a day of rage It’s a day of rage Welcome to Gadigal land Wenyo wenyo wenyo! Welcome to Gadigal land Wenyo wenyo wenyo! Mudjaru ngaya wunyang (take pity on my bad pronunciation) Ngandu bayabawai….ngara (they told us they were sorry…listen) Ngarawa darayawai, darimi (but I think they’ve made a mistake, because for a long time) Garamawaimi baya mudjin, wa? (they stole my speech and family, see?) Birrongaingun ngarawan (our stars are now further away). Always will be Gadigal land It’s unfolding you’re unloading Your high and mighty prison ships We can live without your muskets We can live without your guns We can live without your strychnine We can live without your rum We can live without your gallows We can do without your chains We can do without the massacres The sorrow and the pain So welcome to Gadigal land Wenyo wenyo wenyo! Welcome to Wiradjuri land Welcome to Yorta Yorta land Welcome to Arrernte land Welcome to Mirning land Welcome to Gurindji land All of the lands Welcome! “Gadigal Land” is Midnight Oil’s first new song since the 2002 album Capricornia, and it’s a big, bouncy rocker that sounds a whole lot like an arena jam. But like so many Midnight Oil songs before it, the track is all about how Australia belongs to its Aboriginal people and about how white colonizers should get the fuck out. Stereogum Check out Midnight Oil – Gadigal Land (ft. Dan Sultan, Joel Davison, Kaleena Briggs & Bunna Lawrie) [Official Audio]
