Now I write you a piece of my heart tonight
In the growing Harmattan and her temperament
I am cut in two- I am halved in your Providence
One for your happiness, another for Your happiness

This piece of heart tells a tale of the sea folk
a story of survival, a war of loneliness and luck
Of a boy caught and taught by the sea, somewhere
A legend of the wild, of a land called Wawadomea*
