We Choose to Go to the Moon歌詞

作詞 : John F. Kennedy
作曲 : Christopher Tin
We choose to go to the moon
We choose to go to the moon in this decade
and do the other things,
not because they are easy,
but because they are hard,
because that goal will serve to organize and measure
the best of our energies and skills
We choose to go to the moon
We choose to go to the moon in this decade
because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept,
one we are unwilling to postpone,
and one which we intend to win
We set sail(We set sail)on this new sea
because there is new knowledge to be gained,
new rights to be won,
and they must be won and used for the progress of all people
For space science,like nuclear science and technology,has no conscience of its own
Whether it will become a force for good or ill depends on man
Whether this new ocean will be a sea of peace
or a new terrifying theater of war
A theater of war
For the eyes of the world now look into space,to the moon and to the planets beyond
with hopes for knowledge and peace
For the eyes of the world now look into space,to the moon and to the planets beyond
We have vowed that we shall not see space filled with weapons,
but with instruments of knowledge
we have vowed that we shall not see it governed by a hostile flag,
but with a banner of freedom and peace
There is no strife,no prejudice,no conflict in outer space
Its conquest deserves the best of all mankind
We choose to go to the moon(But why,some say,the moon?)
We choose to go to the moon(Why choose this as our goal?)
We choose to go to the moon(Why,35 years ago)
We choose to go to the moon(Fly the Atlantic?)
And they may well ask why climb the highest mountain?
Why?
Many years ago the great British explorer George Mallory
who was to die on Mount Everest,was asked why did he want to climb it
He said,
"Because it's there"“
"Because it's there"“
Space is there(Well,space is there)
And we're going to climb it
Space is there (and the moon and planets are there)
Space is there (and new hopes for knowledge)
And peace are there
We choose to go to the moon(And,therefore,as we set sail)
We choose to go to the moon(We ask God's blessing)
We choose to go to the moon(on the most hazardous and dangerous and(We choose to go to the moon))
The greatest adventure
The greatest adventure
The greatest adventure on which man has ever embarked
We choose the moon
We choose the stars
We choose the sky
We choose to go!
We choose to go!
We choose to go!
We choose to...
Go!
