Lyric

I walked so far

Along a shoreline made of coral fragments

Endless pieces of white coral

Stretching beside the sea

Then I found it

A quiet sacred place

Jah is watching over this Moana

So gently, so quietly

“Did you know this place was here?”

“If you lived nearby

Of course you would know.”

But travelers never know

They simply pass on by

Without seeing what remains

Jah is watching over this Moana

Whispering through the trade winds

Here upon this coral shore

I can feel the Love

Turning around

I saw yellow butterflies

Dancing in the sunlight

Perhaps children once played here

Held by Love

Protected through storms

Protected through the years

Some things are better left unknown

I’d hate to see

These memories stained

Jah is watching over this Moana

Whispering through the trade winds

Here upon this coral shore

I can feel the Love

Beyond the sea

There must be a paradise

The scent of salt in the air

Little hermit crabs

Running across the sand

Long ago

People crossed these waters

Their stories still remain

Beyond the horizon

Jah is watching over this Moana

And somehow

It welcomed me

The shining sun

Coral fragments

A Love so vast

From the southern sea

A sea turtle swims ashore

Perhaps my ancestors

Once lived upon this island

And that’s why

I will become

A bridge between these islands
