Swim, little turtle, through the sea Swim, little turtle, oh, so free
From the island of Awa'u Right past Tonga Tafu
Swim, little turtle, through the sea
Hidden deep down below Was your very first home
A place that kept you safe and warm inside
But now your journey must begin Use your strength from deep within
And see where life takes you along the tide
Swim, little turtle, through the sea
Swim, little turtle, oh, so free
From the island of Awa'u Right past Tonga Tafu
Swim, little turtle, through the sea
To freely through the waves Say my loy lily
To all your new friends along the way
Swim, little turtle, oh, so free
And when the day comes to an end You can say no for a while, my friend
Farewell and see you another day
Swim, little turtle, through the sea
Swim, little turtle, oh, so free
From the island of Awa'u Right past Tonga Tafu
Swim, little turtle, through the sea
Hidden deep down below Was your very first home
A place that kept you safe and warm inside
But now your journey must begin Use your strength from deep within
And see where life takes you along the tide
Swim, little turtle, through the sea
Swim, little turtle, oh, so free
From the island of Awa'u Right past Tonga Tafu
Swim, little turtle, through the sea
Awe'u
From the island of Awa'u Right past Tonga Tafu
Swim little turtle through the sea
Swim little turtle through the sea
