Lyrics:
Moana! Make way! Make way!
Moana, it's time you knew
The village of Motunui 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.
Don't trip on the taro root,
That's all you need.
We share everything we make.
We joke and we weave our baskets.
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 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;
It's all we need.
We make our nets from the fibers,
The water's sweet inside,
We use the leaves to build fires,
And cook up the meat inside.
Consider the coconuts,
The trunks and the leaves.
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,
And water is sweet inside, (A real tasty treat inside)
We use the leaves to build fires, (We sing these songs in our choirs)
And cook up the meat inside. (We have mouths to feed inside)
The village believes in us!
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.
