Текст песни Song for Caroline Herschel (Phillip Henry & Hannah Martin) с переводом

Sun sinks low, night draws in,

Now is the time for stargazing

I left my home, I thought I would die,

But then I was shown we’re still under the same sky

I once dreamt I was a singer on the stage

And somebody might hear what I had to say

But then I awoke,

I found my life was not my own

My brother took me to look for stars,

Somewhere so far from home

Well, singing and stargazing, in the end,

They’re much the same

Searching for harmony in the great dance

Of all things,

Caught between the cold, cold earth,

And the never, never clouds,

Dreaming yourself into other worlds

One day I’ll find the gods, up in their high,

High halls

And I’ll ask them how do they ever manage

Not to fall?

I’ll curtesy very low through

The telescope’s frame

And I’ll ask them if my life has lived

In vain.
