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 (Make way)
Don't trip on the taro rootThat's all you need
We share everything we make (We make) We joke and we weave our baskets (Aha!) 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 That's all we need
We make our nets from the fibers The water's sweet inside
We use the leaves to build fires We 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, wellThere 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) We weave our nets from the fibers(The water's sweet inside) A real tasty treat inside
(We use the leaves to build fires) We sing these songs in our choirs(We cook up the meat inside) We have mouths to feed inside
The village believes in us (That's right!) The village believes (Ha!)
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
