Verse 1
G
There's a tribe of nomadic
people called
Moken who live on the
Sorin
Islands in the
Andaman
Sea.
Six months of the year they
live simply on their handmade boats.
The rest of the year they live on
the beach.
They learn to swim before they learn to walk and
they are so good at diving and catching
sea creatures that they can see underwater twice as
well as the rest of us in the so -called civilized
world.
They take care of turtle nests,
and they speak their own
Austronesian
D
Moken language,
G
a language unusual in that it has no words for want,
D
G
or take, or goodbye, or hel lo, or
even worry.
D
G
They don't know how old they are because
they have no concept of time, have
no word for when. I
want to go there.
Very, very badly, I want to go.
