WOMAN
But on this island the earth sings
As soon as the storm ends.
MAN
And as Ti Moune set out she realized
She was walking with old friends.
WOMAN
The birds...
THREE WOMEN
Coo coo, coo coo, coo coo coo
Coo coo, coo coo, coo coo coo
TWO MEN
Sha sha sha-aah
MAN
The trees...
BOTH
Sha sha sha-aah
TWO MEN
Ba-oom boom boom
MAN
The frogs!
BOTH
Ba-oom boom boom
WOMAN
And the breezes!
THREE WOMEN

Ti Moune lost all her fear.
She knew Asaka was near!
ASAKA
You've never been away from the sea, child.
You're gonna need a helping hand.
A fish has got to learn to swim on land!
Walk with me, little girl,
Don't you be afraid
Follow me, little girl
Let me be your guide
A pretty thing like you
Will need a thing or two
And whatever you need
Mama will provide
Oh...
Down the road, little girl
You may lose your way
All alone in a world
That may seem too wide
But sit on Mama's lap
And I will draw a map
And whatever
You need
Mama will
Provide
I'll provide you:
Storyteller

Ha!!
Bug will bite little girl
And the night will fall
All alone in the dark
You'll be terrified
But you will make it through
'Cause I am liking you!
And whatever you need Mama will
Provide!
Oh...
Walk with me, little girl
And I'll take you far
Round each bend, little friend
I'll be by your side
That's what a Mama's worth
To give her child the earth
And whatever you need
Mama will...
Provide!!!
