Watcher Of The Skies |
Watcher of the skies watcher of all |
His is a world alone no world is his own |
He whom life can no longer surprise |
Raising his eyes beholds a planet unknown |
Creatures shaped this planet’s soil |
Now their reign has come to an end |
Has life again destroyed life |
Do they play elsewhere, do they know |
More than their childhood games? |
Maybe the lizard’s shed its tail |
This is the end of man’s long union with Earth |
Judge not this race by empty remains |
Do you judge God by his creatures when they are dead? |
For now, the lizard’s shed its tail |
This is the end of man’s long union with Earth |
From life alone to life as one |
Think not now your journey’s done |
For though your ship be sturdy, no |
Mercy has the sea |
Will you survive on the ocean of being? |
Come ancient children hear what I say |
This is my parting counsel for you on your way |
Sadly now your thoughts turn to the stars |
Where we have gone you know you never can go |
Watcher of the skies watcher of all |
This is your fate alone, this fate is your own |
