Come with us.
Leave your wheat fields.
Leave your back-street shops, your fishing boats.
Leave your offices in the tall skyscrapers.
Leave all that is routine and commonplace,
And come with us at once.

Come with us,
To where Man has never been,
But where he will go,
As certain as the passing of time.

Come with us to the Moon.
The rocket is waiting...
