00:00The ocean is a beautiful thing, my friend.

00:27From shore to shore and end to end, where peace and rage and cold attend, the ocean

00:37is a beautiful thing.

00:39And deep within its bellied ground, invisible to all around, there swims a whale named Fifty-Two

00:46whose voice was, sadly, born askew.

00:51Hello, friends, he would start to say.

00:54Not that you hear me, anyway.

00:57I know I'm not your average whale, though I have the body and the tail.

01:02And yes, I swim from shore to shore, but sadly, still, I think there's more.

01:09Perhaps it's just that—never mind, it's not that other whales aren't kind.

01:15They are, in fact.

01:16I know it's so.

01:17Where one will swim, the others go.

01:19They talk and sing and joke about, and never fight or scream or shout.

01:24They're just like me, except one thing—they can't quite seem to hear me sing, or talk

01:30or joke or swim or be.

01:32I'm simply here, but they can't see.

01:37For whales find whales not just with eyes, but also with their vocal cries.

01:42Yet, ever since I've tried to call, it's like I'm not quite here at all.

01:47Have no fear, I'm doing fine.

01:49I've found some ways to pass the time.

01:52Lonely, yes, but that's okay.

01:55I'm sure I'll have a friend someday, and maybe they'll be just like you, someone who's kind

02:00and smart and true.

02:03That someone who will be a friend to those who need one in the end.

02:07Still, I am quite happy most of the time.

02:10It's not just me to which they're blind.

02:13This ocean here that we call home, there's more to see when you're alone.

02:18Like that, the sunlight trickles down on bubbles rising from the ground, or here, the way the

02:23waters swirl.

02:24There's so much beauty in this world.

02:27The little fish, they swim along, the whales, they sing their happy song, the dolphins play,

02:33the seaweed grows, the sharket comes, the sharket goes, and that's all mine.

02:41I get to see the things invisible, like me.

02:45So every night I say hello to all the barnacles below, to every bubble, kelp, and shell, to

02:51every grain of sand as well.

02:54For all these things make up my home, and with them, I don't feel alone.

03:00Perhaps one day they'll see it too, instead of just this blur of blue, the magic swirling

03:06in the sea, the whale that's calling out for me.

03:14Sometimes I wish I were like them, just playing games with all my friends.

03:18We'd stay together all day long.

03:21I'd find my voice and sing my song, but then I suppose I wouldn't be the whale I am, and

03:30I like me.

03:37It's true, I'm happy, and yet blue, this lonely whale named 52.

04:00I'm happy, and yet blue, this lonely whale named 52.

04:30I'm happy, and yet blue, this lonely whale named 52.
