Wiyathul - stunning song by blind Aborigine artist Geoffrey Gurrumul (pronounced Ga - roo - mull) Yunupingu (pronounced Yoo - noo - pin - goo). As his name is so easily misheard and misspelled, here are several incorrect variations that may help you stumble upon this if you are trying to search but aren't sure how to spell it:

Look at his website gurrumul.com. Click on "Albums/Lyrics" then select the song.
This song starts off with "Two scrub fowl crying out". It's quite haunting.

his voice transcends language and speaks to our common soul... we need to listen to the "forgotten people" of the world they sing of sorrow and healing ...
