To space!
Young child!
To space!
You must die amongst the stars
Do not stop till you’ve settled Mars!
To space!
Young child!
To space!
See that cold silent darkness shrink, shiver
As bold rockets fling from Mankind’s quiver
To space!
Young child!
To space!
You must battle, rise, defy gravity's well;
Unleash the universe from voracious hell
To space!
Young child!
To space!
The light cone spread before you like a valley
From Earth to every atoms’ finale:
Each barren rock, every tortured plain,
Each blackhole ripping, every creatures’ pain,
Each unseen starlight, every unknown glory,
Each and every untold story
They’re yours my son, my daughter, my child
To claim and own and exalt that endless wild!
To space!
Young child!
To space!
