Noho Māmā / LIVE LIGHTLY - environmental chant

Abundance all around us
Noho māmā
Live lightly

Let's rewrite the story of the princess and the pea
Cause the pea is not the worry, cause the pea is what we need
We can chuck the pile of mattresses, give up the silky quilt
Farewell the blinding eagerness, go back to treasure seed

Abundance all around us
Noho māmā
Live lightly

So much beauty in the humble, we can wave goodbye to greed
In our hands are all the remedies - let's follow them with deed
We don't want our country barren, cause we want our land to feed
Our fields can thrive and flourish - let's uproot the glutton weed

Abundance all around us
Noho māmā
Live lightly

So let's rewrite the story of the princess and the pea
Cause the pea is not the worry, cause the pea is what we need
Let's collect and grow and gather, so the soil will heal and breed
Talk together, plant together, pave the way to better creed

Abundance all around us
Noho māmā
Live lightly
