- La Luna Asoma -

The waves of the wake will shower
when daughters of the sea, shall arise
they meet the storm with important delivery
- the mermaid's egg

This birth is unique
The mermaids daughters of the Millennium
Soft under white foam and seaweed
among the many occurrences of the place
In melted silver and sparkling moon dust
- a safe universe for the newborn

A journey in waves,
that comes and goes,
like the ebb and flow
As the sea lifts a grain of sand, we salute
Love that gives new life
La luna asoma * - in the cradle of the sea
