| Moana, make way, make way
|
| Moana, it’s time you knew
|
| The village of Motonui is all you need
|
| The dancers are practicing
|
| They dance to an ancient song
|
| Who needs a new song?
|
| This old one’s all we need
|
| This tradition is our mission
|
| And, Moana, there’s so much to do
|
| Make way!
|
| Don’t trip on the taro root
|
| That’s all you need
|
| We share everything we make, we make
|
| We joke and we weave our baskets, aha!
|
| The fishermen come back from the sea
|
| I wanna see…
|
| Don’t walk away
|
| Moana, stay on the ground now
|
| Our people will need a chief
|
| And there you are
|
| There you are
|
| There comes a day
|
| When you’re gonna look around
|
| And realize happiness is where you are
|
| Consider the coconut
|
| The what?
|
| Consider its tree
|
| We use each part of the coconut
|
| That’s all we need
|
| We make our nets from the fibers
|
| The water is sweet inside
|
| We use the leaves to build fires
|
| We cook up the meat inside
|
| Consider the coconuts
|
| The trunks and the leaves, ha!
|
| The island gives us what we need
|
| And no one leaves…
|
| That’s right. |
| We stay
|
| We’re safe and we’re well provided
|
| And when we look to the future
|
| There you are
|
| You’ll be okay
|
| In time you’ll learn just as I did
|
| You must find happiness right where you are
|
| I like to dance with the water
|
| The undertow and the waves
|
| The water is mischievous, ha!
|
| I like how it misbehaves
|
| The village may think I’m crazy
|
| Or say that I drift too far
|
| But once you know what you like
|
| Well, there you are
|
| You are your father’s daughter
|
| Stubbornness and pride
|
| Mind what he says but remember
|
| You may hear a voice inside
|
| And if the voice starts to whisper
|
| To follow the farthest star
|
| Moana, that voice inside is who you are
|
| We make our nets from the fibers
|
| We weave our nets from the fibers
|
| The water’s sweet inside
|
| A real tasty treat inside
|
| We use the leaves to build fires
|
| We sing the songs in our choirs
|
| To cook up the meat inside
|
| We have mouths to feed inside
|
| The village believes in us
|
| That’s right!
|
| The village believes
|
| The island gives us what we need
|
| And no one leaves
|
| So here I’ll stay
|
| My home, my people beside me
|
| And when I think of tomorrow
|
| There we are
|
| I’ll lead the way
|
| I’ll have my people to guide me
|
| We’ll build our future together
|
| Where we are
|
| Cause every path leads you back to where you are
|
| You can find happiness right where you are
|
| Where you are… |
