One breath away from mother Oceania
Your nimble feet make prints in my sands

You have done good for yourselves
Since you left my wet embrace
And crawled ashore

Every boy is a snake, is a lily
Every pearl is a lynx, is a girl

Sweet like harmony made into flesh

You dance by my side
Children sublime

You show me continents
I see the islands
You count the centuries
I blink my eyes

Hawks and sparrows race in my waters
Stingrays are floating
Across the sky

Little ones, my sons and my daughters

Your sweat is salty
I am why
I am why
I am why
Your sweat is salty
I am why
I am why
I am why
