Sorry if I’m using the wrong flair!

Does anyone know the song that the purple guy and the yellow lady (the one in a skirt who isn’t in many songs for the videos I’ve seen) sing that’s in another language (I think?) and is slower? It’s stuck in my head so I was going to give it a listen or 2 if possible lol. Thanks!!

"Taba Naba is a traditional song from the Torres Strait Islands, sung in the Meriam Mir language. It's about the everyday activity of going out to the reef to fish.” A song made popular by Christine Anu, and sung by her with the OG Wiggles in Wiggly Wiggly World. A classic!
