Yaama John,
I have been asked for translation to Yuwaalaraay of:
“We (Aboriginal people) are with you. We have always been here. Come. Walk with us.” Would appreciate your help.
Maayubaa nginda. Maayu yanaaya. [Thank you, go well; JG]
Some possible translations and discussion are in the attached doc.
