Let's close our eyes
Let's imagine that we float
That the spruces bow
When we rise through the night sky
Above the clouds
Past the snow-covered mountains
To a great altitude
To space, where the eyes open
From farther off we watch quietly
The movements of winds, the whirlpools of the seas
From farther off we watch quietly
The beautiful, strange blue planet
How small we are
How small we are
The rulers of the world
How small we are
We continue the journey
Light years through the emptiness
The Sun is left behind
It's only a dim glow now
To a next star
When we come, who will believe
Somewhere is that Earth
Where our lungs were filled with air
From farther off we watch quietly
Do you remember the direction of our home at all
The fragrant, fertile soil
The beautiful, strange blue planet
How small we are
How small we are
The rulers of the world
How small we are
How small we are
Somewhere in the middle of galaxies' tapestries we run on a rotating rock
Peering to the sky, would there be a place where you could begin everything anew
The sea vibrates from the song of the whales, its water flows in our veins
If you looked from far away, would you then see how lonely the Earth is
How small we are
How small we are
The rulers of the world
How small we are
The rulers of the world
The rulers of the world
