One breath away from mother Oceania

Your nimble feet make prints in my sands

Every boy is a snake - is a lily

Every pearl is a lynx - is a girl

Sweet like harmony made into flesh

Children sublime

You show me continents

Stingrays are floating

Across the sky

Little ones, my sons and my daughters

Your sweat is salty

I am why

Your sweat is salty
