Hi there .  Although I am a native speaker I just can �t make out the last sentence of the chorus in Lou Bradley �s Uluru which reads:
 

Have you ever seen the rain fall down on Uluru?

Have you ever listened to that sound

Of the Earth and fire and wind and water ?

Have you ever heard the stories of life?

  (..........................................................................................? ???)  Any ideas?

I so love that song (and her music in general) but I can�t make out that part of the chorus either (and I�m an Aussie!)
 
........... all around
 
In one part of the video it sounds like to goodbye all around and in another it sounds like that you could buy all around but I really don�t know.
 
If no-one can pick it, maybe you could contact her via her web page or facebook.
 
Cheers
 
Jayho

could it be a question about dream time? How the aborigines beleive that everything was created from something else?

I thought I heard, "Have you ever heard the stories of life combined all in one" but then I listened at a slowere rate and it sounds more like "good-bye all around" as Jayho sugested.

This has been bugging me and I�m happy to say that I have now solved it.
 
It�s: Tjukurpa all around.
 
Tjukurpa is an indigenous word used by the people of Uluru and means the foundation of their culture. Tannith was spot on! 
 
See here for more info.
 
Pronounced �chook-orr-pa�.
 
I can rest easy now and also assure you that if you ever have the opportunity to visit Uluru you�ll experience that Tjukurpa all around.
 
Cheers

P.S. Val - thank you. Actually, through this I discovered that she changed her website URL because when I clicked on the link in my doc it went to a Chinese site! Of course I have now updated it.

@Jayho,

I wish I could visit Uluru....Maybe one day. I do thank you for your great work, which gives us so much information about a far-away country, that still represents a dream to many French people.

I love the cultural work you �ve sent us ; just letting you know!
Best regards from Northern France,
Val
