Tjitji Lullaby

The ‘Tjitji lullaby’ is about singing baby animals to sleep, showcasing our rich and diverse animals and land. This beautiful track was created and produced by Zaachariaha Fielding and Michael Ross from Electric Fields.

Lyrics:

Tjitji
Float me now
On the calmest of waters
Tjitji
Sleep is a present
From a day that was gorgeousI know that you love me
So my dreams will be sweetJust like the sunshine
I'm going to sleep
Fly me out
Over stars by the billions
Tjitji
That’s you, you’re the sparkle
My Tjitji, my little one
So go now to sleep
On the calmest of waters
Going to Sleep
From a day that was gorgeous
I’ll never leave you
On the calmest of waters
I’ll never leave you
Your Tjitji, your little one
My little one
So go now to sleep

Marringa Lullaby

The magical Marringa Lullaby is about sleeping, taking you on a journey across Country and dreaming of all the animals you’ve either seen or come across in your day

Written and performed by Emily Wurramara, and written and produced by DOBBY. The lullaby has ties to Emily’s Country and the Warnindilyakwa mob from Milyakburra and Groote Eylandt.

Lyrics

Sea breeze,
Stars rising high
Night-time is here, it’s time to go to sleep.

Dream of
Yimenda, (Turtle)
Yaraja (Goanna)
Duwedirra (White Cockatoo)
Yelyilya (Flying Fox)

Yi, Yi, Yi, Yi, Yi, Yi

In the day, that’s for play
Oh, I am sleeping

Yi, Yi, Yi, Yi, Yi

Ninganah Lullaby - Troy Cassar-Daley (Mushroom Publishing)

Ninganah Lullaby is set on Gumbaynggirr Country (his Nan’s / Mother’s Country). For Troy the song is about camping as a kid with his cousins and being asked to settle down and go to sleep – which was always hard to do. It’s about trying to be quiet and still at night time, even though you’re excited. 🏕️✨

Lyrics:
Ninganah you jarjum (kids), ninganah you kids, the goonge* (ghost) will come give you a fright
Now please don’t be mugul (naughty), just close your eyes
Ninganah you jarjum goodnight
Hey jalaany barrway (big mouth) time for some sleep or the curlews may give you a fright
Tuck in your jinang (feet), and just close your eyes
Ninganah you jarjum goodnight
Ninganah you jarjum, ninganah you kids, the goonge will come give you a fright
Now please don’t be mugul, just close your eyes
Ninganah you jarjum goodnight
Ninganah you jarjum goodnight
Ninganah you jarjum goodnight
Ninganah you jarjum goodnight
Goonge also known as Guunj originated in Dhanggati language (spelt guuyn in Dhanggati).

This beautiful track was written and performed by Christine Anu and produced by DOBBY. The lullaby is connected to Christine’s childhood on Mabuyag Island in the Torres Strait (Zenadth Kes).

Lyrics:
Oooo, Pur-ka thamu-dhar (Close your eyes)
Oooo, Uth-uy, Ay-a (let sleep come)
Oooo, Thi-thuy-il kay-mil gim-al (The stars above are your guardians)
Piki mangiz, Kapu piki (It’s time to dream, beautiful dreams)
Magic hour, golden light
Nay-gay (Northern) breeze whispers goodnight
Close your eyes, and not a peep
Athe (Grandfather) moon is watching you sleep
Oooo, Pur-ka thamu-dhar (Close your eyes)
Oooo, Uth-uy, Ay-a (let sleep come)
Oooo, Thi-thuy-il kay-mil gim-al (The stars above are your guardians)
Piki mangiz, Kapu piki (It’s time to dream, beautiful dreams)

Original Song: Written by Christine Anu (Saibai/Mabuyag) & Produced by DOBBY (Muruwari)
