00:00In the quiet of the morn, she roams the ancient streams

00:06Ulana's beauty shines where the dove's white feathers gleam

00:12Her eyes will whisper in the roar of devil's pool

00:19Where Babenda's boulders hold the tale so dark and cruel

00:26From Merinji's sacred grounds, her spirit burned to soar

00:33Her love of guiding light, through North Queensland's wild shore

00:36Causing mystery echo, in the valleys deep and wide

00:40Through the misted waters where the restless spirits hide

00:51But the waters hold a secret dark and silent as the night
