Jurlpu (bird)

Pantirni kana ngurrju-mani jurlpu kuja kalu nyinami ngajunyangu ngurrara Nyirrpi-wana manu Yurntumu-wana. Pantirni kana jurlpu kuja kaju mannginyanyi ngajunyangu ngurra rarralypamaninjaku ngajilu yiraru nyinami. Ngapayirlyiri jurlpu putu kalu pirriparnkami jilkikili kijika ngurrara wana ngura pirlirrpa-rlu. Rarralpa kana nyinmi pantirni manu ngurranga nyinmi warlalja kulu. I paint the jurlpu that live on my country surrounding Nyirrpi and Yuendumu. I paint the bird to make me happy and remember my home when I am lonely. After rain there are many birds that fly around spreading the seed and making the country strong. I feel happy when I am painting and living on country with my family. WILMA NAPANGARDI POULSON
