Translated by Yarran Bundle from a Kee woorroong Gunditjmara story

English Translation

A long time ago fire belonged to the crows who lived at Gariwerd, the Grampian Mountains.
They were greedy crows and knew that fire was of great value.
A little bird, Yuuloinkeear, firetail wren, was watching the crows making fun and games with fire-sticks.
One fire-stick fell to the ground and Yuuloinkeear picked it up and flew away.
The crows chased him and Yuuloinkeear soon grew tired. So he passed the fire-stick to Tarrakuuk.
Tarrakuuk, the kestrel hawk, took the fire-stick from Yuuloinkeear and lit all the Country behind him.
From that time there has been fire for all the Gunditjmara.
