Christine Anu - Waku - Minaral a Minalay Lyrics

My mother is the eldest
Is the eldest of the seven
All the seven of the sisters
Weave the pattern of the mat
And the colours and the weaving
Are a bond thats made with love
So the Waku is unbroken
That the seven sisters wove

Ch Waku Walk across my weaving
Waku

When he came into the world
He was placed upon the mat
Pandanus, soft and gentle
Where I placed my baby head
He's a child and full of wonder
He crawls on side the weaving
When he fell in love and married
Poeydhamoeyn Waku

Waku (he walks across my weaving)
Waku he walks across my weaving
Mineral Minalai waku

When his time has come to end
Like a blanket hell be covered
Ooh Ooh

Here he comes the warrior
All tired and battle weary
He walks across my weaving
With a lightness in his step
He comes holding strong the Kugay
She is blind and cannot see him
But she calls out loud his name
Kuaim

Waku
Come and walk across my weaving..
WAKU
Come and walk across my weavinh
Mineral minalai waku

Waku walk across my weaving
Waku he walks across my weaving
Waku
Come and walk across my weaving"
