Moonlight
Singer: Rameses B
We go about our daily lives understanding almost nothing of the world.
Born here But I don’t know where it is.
We give little thought of the machinery that generates the sunlight and makes life possible.
The sun shines all over the city and everything grows. Why?
To the gravity that glues us to the earth that would otherwise send us spinning off into space.
Without the embrace of the earth, we would have disappeared into the vast universe
Or to the atoms that which we are made.. and on who's stability we fundamentally depend.
Without the stability of atoms, we would no longer exist
Few of we spend much time wondering why nature is the way it is.
No one asks why the heaven and earth change, and the stars change.
Where the cosmos came from.
Where did the universe come from?
Whether it was always there.
Whether it was nothing Beginning without end?
If time will one day flow backward.
If time is willing to flow backward
Or whether there are ultimate limits to what humans can know.
Will there still be limitations in our cognition?
What is the smallest piece of matter.
What is the smallest piece of matter in the world?
Why we remember the past and not the future.
The Yangtze River rolls by, but only the past remains, not the future
And why there is a universe.
The vast universe, why do we meet here
