In a village far away, in a time of despair
An old woman and her granddaughter were left with none to spare
The famine stole their hope, their hearts were torn apart
And in grief they found the courage to make a brand-new start
They walked to the cliffs where the ocean meets the sky
With a prayer in their hearts, they said goodbye
Into the waves they leapt, hand in hand they fell
And in the sea's embrace, they heard its ancient spell
Oh, Turtle and the Shark, swimming through the sea
Bound by love and sorrow, wild and free
In Vaitogi's waters, where the lava cliffs rise high
Your legend lives forever 'neath the Tutuila sky
They traveled many miles through the ocean's blue
Two spirits intertwined, their strength shining through
They reached Vaitogi's shores, where kindness paved the way
The high chief Letuli gave them shelter from the fray
Though famine gripped his people, he shared what he could give
And the Turtle and the Shark found a reason to live
With gratitude and love, they returned to the deep
And in Vaitogi's waters, they vowed their souls to keep
Oh, Turtle and the Shark, swimming through the sea
Bound by love and sorrow, wild and free
In Vaitogi's waters, where the lava cliffs rise high
Your legend lives forever 'neath the Tutuila sky
Now the villagers sing, and the waves softly part
To honor the tale of the Turtle and the Shark
They come when they're called, from the depths below
A reminder of kindness, in the waters they glow
Oh, Turtle and the Shark, swimming through the sea
Bound by love and sorrow, wild and free
In Vaitogi's waters, where the lava cliffs rise high
Your legend lives forever 'neath the Tutuila sky
So if you stand on the cliffs where the ocean winds sing
And you listen to the waves and the stories they bring
You might catch a glimpse of their love in the dark
The spirit of Vaitogi, the Turtle and the Shark
