歌詞

And how are you fallen so soon?
Do you remember Icarus,
whose father gave him
wings of wax and feathers
for a toy?
There he is — in memory’s eye —
canary of a boy!
[Icarus:] O, joy – so much
at hand! – to soar
the strand, over sea
and shore! Whee! — to taste
ambition pure!
Two wingbeats more,
and I can see the patterns
on the ocean floor.
O, me!
I’m free as albatross! Stronger
than ever with a father so
clever with beeswax and
feather! I flap them together
and higher and higher I rise! —
I am a dream!
I’ll touch the moon!
How small she is — the blue-
green planet far below...
I belong to her no longer.
Who am I, without her?
The sun.
The sun grows.
The sun grows ever hotter...
[Earth:] Yes I remember Icarus,
who flew too near the sun.
Waxen wings undone,
he tumbled, thrashing, and
came crashing into the sea!
So fell humanity.
So fell I.
