Kate & Anna McGarrigle Lyrics
My Mother Is The Ocean Sea Lyrics
Dh, my mother is the ocean sea.
My father is the sun.
Long time ago they made me
Before time had begun.
Away, haul away children.
One sun, one ocean.
Tide waters changing by quarters of the moon,
A-wash upon the shore,
Form a salty warm sea womb
For men, diatoms and more.
Away, haul away children.
One sun, one ocean.
Oh such a hungry, slithering tangle
Of namelesso nesa -suckling
Midst random death clutches,
Random love nuzzling.
Away, haul away children.
One sun, one ocean.
So may sun shine on ocean sea.
May we flourish by knowing,
May sea mother find us
Wherever the wind's a-blowing.
Away, haul away children.
One sun, one ocean.
Away, haul away children.
One sun, one ocean.
Oh, my mother is the ocean sea.
