Cosmos and the Pale Blue Dot
Atoms with awareness, learning how to love.
In every living room, the universe speaks,
Supernovas bloom, as reason and wonder peak.
No need for burning bushes when science unfolds,
In wavelengths of light, the cosmos is told.
In neurons and minds, the galaxies reside,
Seeking the sacred in equations defined.
When we came here, we didn’t really know,
On a different level, it seemed okay to go.
We tried to save them, from politics, and strife,
From fleeting ideas, that cause eternal life.
The cosmos knowing itself, in time and space,
The sublime in nature, the sacred in our embrace.
Temporary arrangements, in the vast expanse,
The most profound divine experience, in every chance.
It's a generally observable divinity,
In every thing we see, not hidden in the sky.
The pale blue dot, spinning through the night,
A testament to life, in the vast cosmic light.
We tried to save them, from their self-inflicted pain,
But they were obsessed with fleeting, empty gain.
In the end, it's love, that binds us all,
The extraordinary, in the natural law.
The pale blue dot, spinning through the night,
A tribute to Carl Sagan*, guiding us with his light.
Dum dum dum, the synth beats in our heart,
Cosmos and humanity, forever entwined, never apart.

Here's a link to the song:

Основная мысль заключается в том, что люди - часть Вселенной, состоящей из атомов, обладающих сознанием. Через науку мы можем понять Вселенную глубже, чем через религиозные символы. Стремление к любви и взаимопониманию - основа нашего существования. Это то, что мы должны противопоставлять политическим конфликтам и эгоистичным желаниям. Уникальность Земли представлена как "голубое пятнышко".
Как подчеркивал в своих работах Карл Саган, единство человека и космоса выражается в научных и духовных поисках.
