Wings of birds, wings of bees
Wings of moth and mangrove tree
Roots that delve the shallow stream
Cradle crabs and silver bream
Unceasingly
Endlessly
Eyes of hunter, eyes of prey
Eyes to scare the owl away
He watches till the break of day
The riverbank of leaf and clay
Unceasingly
Endlessly
Oh, sea, mother of my soul
Thy tempests sing in me
Thy billows roll
Oh, sea, mother of my soul
Thy tempests sing in me
Endlessly
Tail to tell the danger near
And tail to swing from there to here
And change direction in the clear
Platonic sea, its course to steer
Unceasingly
Endlessly
Feet in water, feet on sand
With talons living, life to land
Binding me where I began
In footprints at the feet of land
Oh, sea, mother of my soul
Thy tempests sing in me
Thy billows roll
Oh, sea, mother of my soul
Thy tempests sing in me
Endlessly
Endlessly
Oh, sea, mother of my soul
Thy tempests sing in me
Thy billows roll
Oh, sea, mother of my soul
Thy tempests sing in me
Thy billows roll
Sea, mother of my soul
Thy tempests sing in me
Thy billows roll
Sea, mother of my soul
Thy tempests sing in me
Endlessly
Endlessly
Endlessly
Endlessly
I am the child
Of air, earth, and sea
