This track was composed by Maria Dharma Mitra.
"This song came through upon my first walk through Wallum and like many of us I was in awe of this Majestic Beauty. I sat, I listened and I felt moved, to the core of my being. Such Deep Gratitude to all the wonderful people working tirelessly to protect and defend this Rare and Precious Site."
Maria asked me to record and produce it for a film to protect this precious site from development.
I played guitar, bass, keyboards, harmony vocals and percussion, and produced and mastered the track.
Maria sang the main vocals.
Enjoy.
lyrics
Going down to the place
Where the wild flowers grow
The river runs wild
Singing as she flows
Home to the froglet
And the Scribbly Gum
Where the Black Cockatoo
Are nesting their young
Tall trees standing strong
Creatures all about
Feilds of vibrant flowers
Upon these mossy grounds
Winds are blowing
Abundant with the sounds
Of Mother Natures Glory
May it be forever now
Wallum, Majestic Beauty
A gift from life to life
Wallum, Majestic Beauty
A rare and precious site
Celebrating
This Beauty so profound
Grateful for these corridors
We gently walk on down
Systems of ecology
Provisions for totality
Balance, Harmony, We
Stand for this beauty
This song of creation
How it sings so sweetly
Calling to be heard, So
Listen deeply
Lay your body
Upon the ground
Feel the rhythm
And hear the sounds
Its one heart beating
Wallum, Majestic Beauty
A gift from life to life
Wallum, Majestic Beauty
A rare and precious site
Blowing in the wind
Is the sound of Love
Blowing in the wind
Is the sound, is the sound
Of Love
