Lyric

Nānā ʻoe i ka Moana

ʻIke au i kou maka piʻopiʻo

ʻO kou naʻau e kaumaha ana

You ask the waves if this is all there is

Keu ka ʻino o kou manaʻo

A ʻaʻole ʻoe e hana, no ka makaʻu

I know what you truly feel

ʻAu i loko oʻu, e kuʻu kaikamahine

Hoʻokuʻu i ka luna o kou naʻau

E hana i kēia manawa, ʻaʻole mahope

Don't wait to cry at the end

Don't wait to cry at the end

ʻAʻole wau e hala – he Moana wau

Ke holo au a puni honua

Akā ʻo ʻoe, he manawa pōkole

You are not meant to drift forever

E hoʻolohe i ka leo o ke kai

ʻO ke kai nō ke ola

Let your life be more than silence

ʻO kēia kou manawa

E ala, e hana, e hiamoe me ka ʻakaʻaka

Aia no i ke kō a ke au

But you are the one who decides to swim

But you are the one who decides to swim

But you are the one who decides to swim
