(The title "The Wiggles and Friends" appears before a colour transitions to the song: Havenu Shalom Alechem A scene where The Wiggles get to speak "hello" in different languages.)
Greg: There's lots of different ways to say hello. In Italian, "ciao".
Murray: In French, "bonjour".
Jeff: In Cantonese you say, "nei hou ma".

(We then transition into the next song. Murray explains the origins of the song)
Murray: This next song is from Eastern Torres Strait and is sung in Meriam Mir language. It's called "Taba Naba". Now Taba Naba means "Let's all go down to the reef and have a great time". This song is best on sitting down. You might like to join in. Let's all go down to the reef and have a great time. Taba!
