(Great White Whale)
A Song offering
from Luis Walker,
Aboriginal Elder of
the Widjimbul people
from the Byron Bay,
Australia region.
Luis Walker offers
a special gift to this
years project with offering
of Sacred chant, spoken
words, didgeridoo, clapping
sticks in this powerful
Yiragir song. Also in
the Yiragir track is
Flute is played by Elvina
Munir.
The Song from Luis
Walker representing
the indigenous lineage
and understanding of
the relationship between
the water, the whales,
the earth and humanity.
He reminds us that all
Earths creatures are
our Brothers and Sisters.
Luis’s people
still live very, very
close to the land. Their
relationship with Mother
Earth is very real and
deep. This song for
him is quite literally
a tender sharing between
him and his grandmother,
the great Whale. There
is no separation of
species in his being.
He is singing a song
with, to and for his
grandmother. Yiragir
(pronounced “Yirigi”)
is spoken a few times
in the track. This is
the name of the great
White Whale who is the
Creator in many of their
creation stories.
Lusi Walker’s
role in his traditions
and culture is to be
a bridge between the
wisdom and way of his
people with the western
world. In effect he
has been chosen to share
essence of the Aboriginal
‘Creation Song’
with the wider world
with the purpose of
bringing unity once
again to all the tribes.
DEEP OCEAN
GRATITUDE to LUIS and
the
Widjimbul people for
your sacred Song offerings
and Presence within
the One Song Project.
