Yothu Yindi (Yolngu language for " Child and Mother. " ) is an Australian band with Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal members . The Aboriginal members come from near Yirrkala on the Gove Peninsula in the Northern Territory's Arnhem Land. The band tries to combine aspects of both musical cultures. Their sound varies from traditional Aboriginal songs to modern pop and rock songs. In almost all their songs they try to blend the typical instruments that are associated with pop/rock bands , such as guitars and drums , with the traditional didgeridoo and clapsticks . They also adapted traditional dance to accompany their music .


Lindsay Murdoch , Darwin July 31 , 2008 TRADITIONAL Aboriginal owners have won exclusive control of more than 7000 kilometres of Northern Territory coastline in a ground-breaking High Court decision . The court's 5-2 ruling will allow Aboriginal people living in coastal communities to reap what are expected to be huge economic benefits . Anyone wanting to enter their land - including beaches and the sea from the high to low-water mark - will have to get permission . Indigenous elders in Darwin yesterday celebrated what they called a "landmark victory for traditional owners" after a protracted legal battle . " We are overjoyed by this decision … we have waited for 30 years for our sea rights to be legally recognised " , said Wali Wunungmurra , chairman of the Northern Land Council , which represents indigenous groups in northern Australia . The decision will give traditional owners authority under the Northern Territory Land Rights Act to decide how fishing is conducted along 80% of the Territory coast , which offers some of Australia's best fishing .


TRIBAL VOICE( Complete Lyrics . Not available in the Net )

There’s a walking of a rainbow dawn
And the sun will rise up high


There’s a whisper in the morning light
Saying get up and meet the day

But inside my mind is a trouble voice
and is speaking to me every day
and all I have to do
is to make a choice
cause I know there' s another way .


All the people in the world are dreaming (get up stand up)
Some of us cry for the rights of survival now (get up stand up)
Saying c’mon c’mon! Stand up for your rights
While others don’t give a damn
They’re all waiting for a perfect day
You better get up and fight for your rights
Don’t be afraid of the move you make
You better listen to your tribal voice!



Well I winder if it’s part of history
Full of influential mystery
From the spirits of my people
Who have just hone before
And the future of another day

All the people in the world are dreaming (get up stand up)
Some of us cry for the rights of survival now (get up stand up)
Saying c’mon c’mon! Stand up for your rights
While others don’t give a damn
They’re all waiting for a perfect day
You better get up and fight for your rights
Don’t be afraid of the move you make
You better listen to your tribal voice!

All the people in the world are dreaming (get up stand up)
Some of us cry for the rights of survival now (get up stand up)
Saying c’mon c’mon! Stand up for your rights
While others don’t give a damn
They’re all waiting for a perfect day
So you better get up and fight for your rights
Don’t be afraid or the move that you make
You better listen to your tribal voice!
You better listen to your tribal voice!

Well I wonder if it’s part of history
Full of influential mystery
From the spirits of my people
Who have just gone before
And the future of another day

All the people in the world are dreaming (get up stand up)
Some of us cry for the rights of survival now (get up stand up)
Say c’mon c’mon, stand up for your rights


While others don’t give a damn
They are all waiting for a perfect day
You better get up and fight for your rights
Don’t be afraid of the move that you make
You better listen to your tribal voice
You better listen to your tribal voice
You better listen to your tribal voice

TREATY


Well I heard it on the radio
And I saw it on the television
Back in 1988
All those talking politicians
Words are easy , words are cheap
Much cheaper than our priceless land
But promises can disappear
Just like writing in the sand

Treaty Yeh Treaty Now
Treaty Yeh Treaty Now

Nhima Djatpangarri nhima walangwalang -
Nhe Djatpayatpa nhima gaya nhe-
Matjini.... Yakarray - nhe Djat'pa nhe walang - Gumurrtijararrk Gutjuk -

This land was never given up
This land was never bought and sold
The planting of the Union Jack
Never changed our law at all

Now two rivers run their course
Separated for so long
I'm dreaming of a brighter day
When the waters will be one

Treaty Yeh Treaty Now Treaty Yeh Treaty Now
Treaty Yeh Treaty Now Treaty Yeh Traty Now

Nhima djatpa nhe walang
gumurrtjararrk yawirriny Nhe gaya nhe matjini
Gaya nhe matjini Gaya gaya nhe gaya nhe
Matjini walangwalang Nhema djatpa nhe walang - Nhe gumurrtjarrk nhe ya-

Promises - Disappear - Priceless land - Destiny

Well I heard it on the Radio
And I saw it on the Television
But promises can be desapear Just like writing in the sand




Μάγκες τσιμπήστε το !
Τα χώνουν και στο στίχο και στη μουσική !

This is a great big unknown band !
