by Raffi and Debi Pike
“Baby Beluga” is a very popular nursery rhyme by the Canadian children’s entertainer Raffi and Debi Pike. It was released in the 1980 album of the same title. The song is about a young beluga whale that “swim[s] so wild and […] free”. An illustrated sing-along book was also published and sold separately as a companion to the first track. To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the song and album, Raffi performed a very special rendition of “Baby Beluga” with the renown cellist Yo-Yo Ma in 2020.

Lyrics
Baby Beluga in the deep blue sea,
Swim so wild and you swim so free.
Heaven above, and the sea below,
And a little white whale on the go.
Baby beluga, baby Beluga, is the water warm?
Is your mama home with you, so happy.
Way down yonder where the dolphins play,
Where they dive and splash all day,
The waves roll in and the waves roll out,
See the water squirting out of your spout.
Baby beluga, baby Beluga, sing your little song,
Sing for all your friends, we like to hear you.
When it’s dark, you’re home and fed,
Curl up snug in your water bed.
Moon is shining and the stars are out,
Good night, little whale, goodnight.
Baby beluga, baby Beluga, with tomorrow’s sun,
Another day’s begun, you’ll soon be waking.
Baby Beluga in the deep blue sea,
Swim so wild and you swim so free.
Heaven above and the sea below,
And a little white whale on the go.
You’re just a little white whale on the go.
