"Song For Touring Around The Stars" lyrics

"Song For Touring Around The Stars"
(originally by Kenji Miyazawa)

See the scorpion's eye
It glitters red
And the eagle's spreading wings
They soar above
And the eyes of little dog
Are twinkling blue
And the shining snake is coiled up
Deep as love

And Orion's song sung from so far away
Encoded in the dew and gleaming frost
Past where the clouds that clothe Andromeda
Float before the mouths of fishes paired

And turning five stars north of Great Bear's paw
Set in the forehead of the Little Bear
The target of our flight is shining down
Signaling the heart of everyone
