The story:

Ngamurrunya ngaanya Kapi. Ngamurrunya ngayuku ngurra. Ngaanya wati-ngarringu Ngamurrunya Kapi pirti kutjarra.
Kapi yirnta purinypa wiya. Kapituka nyinarranytja Kungka Tjurta Tjukurta, Nangala pirni ngayuku Ngunytju Ngamurrula
nyinarra mapakarnu. Nyangkaya Marrapirntiku/Kiwirrkurraku Kungka Kutjupa Tjurta lipula yanangi Kungkaya
Nungurrayi kamu Nangala. Ngamurrulaya Mayi talingka pakalpayinya wanpurru yurrara paara ngalkuningi. Nyaratjaya
Kakarra Papunku kamu Ngartankulpi yanu.These two waterholes are of Ngamurru. Ngamurru is my home. The painting
shows the waterholes of Ngamurru. It is not like a spring – the waterhole dries out after a while. At these waterholes
many women were staying here for a short while in the creation time (Dreamtime).These women were Nangala, my
mothers. Another group of women, a group of Nungurrayi and Nangala were travelling to Marrpirnti/Kiwirrkura while
the Nangala women were at Ngamurru. At Ngamurru the Nangala women collect, cooked and ate the bush tucker
wanpurru that goes on sandhills. They then set off to the east to Papun and Ngartan.
