Across the ocean lies greatness my strong child

And I held you close across my shoulder

As I give thanks to the wind—to the blue sky

To the regal divine mother and father that form

Shape you and I

Across the ocean lies greatness even when

I cannot see the mystical paradise that was told to me

I am grateful for the blessings, the gift, I now can see;

That you are the bright shining star which was given to me.
