One breath away from mother Oceanðòa
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 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
