Oceania

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
