Notes

Villager: It's the harvest. This morning I was husking the coconuts and...
Moana: Well... We should clear the diseased trees. And we will start a new grove there.
Villager: Thanks, Moana. She's doing great.
Chief Tui: This suits you.
Villager: Chief! There's something you need to see. Our traps in the east lagoon. They're pulling out less and less fish.
Moana: Then we'll rotate the fishing ground.
Villager: We have, there's no fish.
Moana: Oh... Then we'll fish far side of the island.
Villager: We tried.
Moana: The windward side.
Villager: And the leeward side. We tried the whole lagoon. They're just... gone.
Villagers:
-What you have tried using for the bait?
-I don't use it as a bait.
-I would talk to the counselor.
-I'm sure we'll...
Moana: What if... we fished beyond the reef?
Chief Tui: No one goes beyond the reef.
Moana: I know. But if there are no fish in the lagoon...
Chief Tui: Moana...
Moana: And there's a whole ocean...
Chief Tui: We have one rule.
Moana: An older rule, when there were fish.
Chief Tui: A rule that keep us safe!
Moana: But Dad!
Chief Tui: Instead of endangering our people so you can run right back to the water! Every time I think you're past this. No one goes beyond the reef!
Sina: Well, it's like what you said in front of your dad standing on a boat.
Moana: I didn't say go beyond the reef because I want to be on the ocean.
Sina: But you still do. He's hard on you, because...
Moana: Because he doesn't get me.
Sina: Because he was you. Drawn to the ocean. Down by the shore. He took a canoe, Moana. He crossed the reef and found an unforgiving sea. Waves like mountains. His best friend begged to be on that boat. He couldn't save him. He's hoping he can save you. Sometimes, who we wish we were, what we wish what we can do is just not meant to be.
Moana: ♫ I've been staring at the edge of the water / Long as I can remember, never really knowing why / I wish I could be the perfect daughter / But I come back to the water, no matter how hard I try / Every turn I take, every trail I track / Every path I make, every road leads back / To the place I know, where I can not go, where I long to be / See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me / And no one knows, how far it goes / If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me / One day I'll know, if I go there's just no telling how far I'll go / I know everybody on this island seems so happy on this island / Everything is by design / I know everybody on this island has a role on this island / So maybe I can roll with mine / I can lead with pride, I can make us strong / I'll be satisfied if I play along / But the voice inside sings a different song / What is wrong with me? / See the light as it shines on the sea? It's blinding / But no one knows, how deep it goes / And it seems like it's calling out to me, so come find me / And let me know, what's beyond that line, will I cross that line? / See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me / And no one knows, how far it goes / If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me / One day I'll know, how far I'll go ♫
Moana: I can do this. There's more fish beyond the reef. There's more beyond the reef. Not so bad. Pua!
