Distant Traveller

Ancient sun, eternal Sun and stars
Giving power to the world, older than life
Splintering power, witness worlds collide
Spreading in the void, gathering stars
Moving on, teeming life will come

Voyage on, voyage on distant traveler

Sparkling green, an ocean fills with life
Ice and snow, the mountains flow and form
Rivers crack, and open to the sun
Forest light and seasons change as one
Plumbing depths, teeming life will come

Distance, and time, creating life,
Alone and cold, bereft and old,
Relentless

Time and space, evolve to life,
Gestate, encode, compute, collate,
Eternal

Space, and flight, reflect, ingest
Cocoon, accumulate, survive
The maker

City Lights and heat on baking plains
Desert sands and rainforest to reign
Multitudes and fertile loamy soil
Green shoots break, crops and food for all
Reaching out, majesty of life

Reaching out, pushing on distant traveler
Voyage on, voyage on, distant traveler

Distant ship, sail beyond the sun
A golden disc, recording science and sound
Pale blue, our small and distant world
Sailing on, never to return
Seeking life outliving everyone

Sailing on, sailing on distant traveler
