27 The Two Wrong Skin Lovers English translation by Christine Nakamarra Long Long ago some people were living in the bush. They were Jangala, Japangardi, Jampijinpa, Nakamarra, Napangardi, Nungarrayi, Napurrurla, Jungarrayi and Nangala. The men asked Japangardi to go hunting with them but Japangardi stayed behind with the women. The men went hunting without Japangardi. All the women stayed behind with nim. Nungarrayi said to Japangardi. "Lets go hunting for meat, just you and me. We'll go this way." So they went. In the afternoon they came back from hunting with some meat, bush yams and bush currants. The next day Nungarrayi said to Japangardi, 'Japangardi let's go hunting." They went in a different direction from before. They were in love with each other. They didn't return. In the late afternoon half way, they were making a windbreak. Til sleep here.' Nungarrayi said to Japangardi. At the camp the men came back from hunting. Jangala asked the women. "Where's Nungarrayi gone?" The women said, Japangardi and Nungarrayi went hunting, maybe they are lovers." Jangala said to Jampijinpa, "I am going after them I am going to chase those two wrong skin lovers." Jangala got his spear and boomerang to hit Nungarrayi and Japangardi. He went after them. He followed their tracks. He found them. Jangala grabbed Nungarrayi. He hit Nungarrayi and Japan gardi. He took them back to camp. He took them home to hit them some more. T am going to hit you at home because you are the wrong skins." So Jangala took Nungarrayi and Japangardi back to the camp. Nampijinpa hit Nungarrayi and Japangardi. Jangala told Napangardi and Nangala off because they were growling at Nungarrayi. After that Nungarrayi and Japangardi stayed with their own husband and wife and behaved themselves.
