eyes of the elders

Our indigenous brothers and sisters are born with the land in thier soul.

You could say that they are a part of this land like the old gum tree.

If you look into the eyes of an elder,you can see the world.

With a universe of wisdom and courage that circles the globe they know that each generation is just as vulnerable as the last.

Give the blackfella a chance;cause he,ll change you.
He may not change you quickly,but he will change you.
He,ll humble you!!

Then he may ask you why?
Why are the trees crying???

Then he may ask you why?
Why are the bees dying???

Then he may ask you why?
Why are the polititions lying???

Then i might say brother,please stop sighing but brother i beg you,dont stop trying.
