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 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
|
