Mother gives us life
In her oceans’ deep
From her waters came
All humanity
On her fearless waves
I feel her carry me
Time and time again
Rising from her heart
We find joy and pain
By following our stars
Till her timeless tides
Remind us who we are….
Mother gives her soul
To our odyssey
Till our journey’s end
Returns us to the deep
At my journey’s end
She will carry me…
In her oceans’ deep
From her waters came
All humanity
On her fearless waves
I feel her carry me
Time and time again
Rising from her heart
We find joy and pain
By following our stars
Till her timeless tides
Remind us who we are….
Mother gives her soul
To our odyssey
Till our journey’s end
Returns us to the deep
At my journey’s end
She will carry me…
