Bilingual
Set a course for the stars...
Farewell, my friends,
Taking leave of England
Headed due south;
Experimental gentlemen.
On the high seas
Clear the distance
Chase the moon
Across the sky; experimental gentlemen.
At the ends of the Earth seeking landfall
The observers and collectors making order of the world.
At the masthead,
Crow's nest,
Spyglass in hand; experimental gentlemen.
Listen out for
The sound of the waves breaking on a distant shore
At the edge of the known world.
Dare to know,
Set a course for the stars, men of reason
Making sense of the world and the wonder of it all.
Dare to know
The wonder of it all.
