Treacherous giant bird treading through the landscape…
Cutting through the rocky mountains creating valleys
Eating the flesh of humans and animals alike
But when Tchingal dies from the spears revenging tip
Bloody flows and spills, leaving the Wimmera river winding
And the birth of your ancestors are here today from the feathers that were laid down
One pile was man, and the other pile was woman, the emus that we now can see.
