In deep waters of Doubtful Sound
I live a happy life
free from human influence,
they never cause me strife.
When joy overwhelms me
I give a great big jump.
Keep your busy waterways
where humans garbage dump.
These pristine waters are my home,
these timeless hills stand tall.
As I swim these ocean depths
beneath a waterfall
the seabirds cry their song of joy,
The fishes swim nearby.
In this protected harbour home
there's nought to make me cry.
Please, mankind, leave me to roam
my lifetime in the wild.
I can mate in freedom here,
produce a dolphin child.
Don't disturb this beauteous place
with all your poisoned ways.
Leave the wildlife here in peace
to live out happy days.
