Respectfully calling
The God of the Sea
So you can see
Our world
So you can see
My world
So you understand
How beautiful and good
So you can see

Itโs all there with you
You feel it
It's centred on that
โStay strong
You feel it

Itโs all there with you
You feel it

Verse 3
We read the wind and the sky
When the sun is high
We sail the length of the sea
On the ocean breeze
At night we name every star
We know where we are
We know who we are who we are
Aue aue we set a course to find
A brand new island everywhere we roam
Aue aue we keep our island in our mind
And when itโs time to find home
We know the way
bridge
Aue aue we are explorers reading every sign
We tell our stories of our elders
In a never ending chain
We arenโt afraid of the horizon line
We know what came before us
We know the way
WE KNOW THE WAY - Translations
Verse 1
We are voyagers
summoned by the gods
of this mighty ocean to come
we take up the good challenge
get ready
verse 2
We understand the ways of the sea
we look to the stars and other signs
to find our way
to find new lands
to make our home
chorus
oh! oh!
there is land up ahead
a bird in flight to take us there
oh! oh!
this beautiful land
the place i was looking for
to make our home
