  2004年雅典奥运会主题歌《海洋》的演唱者是冰岛歌手比约克(Bjork)。她被称作世界乐坛最另类的前卫歌手、拥有“天籁之音”冰岛的国宝,无论曲风,还是行为,她都以怪诞和特立独行著称。11岁,比约克就推出了个人专辑《比约克》,之后赢得无数的大奖及空前的争议。2000年,她因主演电影《黑暗中的舞者》成为戛纳电影节的影后。

Oceania
Bjork


One breath away from mother oceania
Your nimble feet make prints in my sands
You have done good for yourselves
since you left my wet embrace and crawled ashore 1


Every boy is a snake is a lily
Every pearl is a lynx is a girl
Sweet like harmony made into flesh
You dance by my side. Children sublime 2


You show me continents. I see islands
You count the centuries. I blink my eyes
hawks and sparrows race in my waters
Stingrays are floating across the sky


little ones, my sons and my daughters
your sweat is salty, I am why, I am why, I am why
your sweat is salty, I am why, I am why, I am why
