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
