歌词
We meet in an hour of change and challenge
我们处于一个变化与挑战无所不在的时期
In a decade of hope and fear
希望与失望相互交织的十年
In an age of both knowledge and ignorance
知识与愚昧并存的时代
The greater our knowledge increases, the greater our ignorance unfolds
我们获得的知识越多，我们显露出的无知也就越多
The eyes of the world are now looking to space
为如今仰望太空
To the moon, and to the planets beyond
注视月球和遥远行星的世人
And we have vowed
我们发誓
That we shall not see it governed.By a hostile flag of conquest
我们不会看到太空成为那些不友好国家的战利品
But by a banner of freedom and peace
而是看到代表自由与和平的旗帜在飘扬
We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things
我们决定在这十年间登上月球并实现更多梦想
Not because they are easy, but because they are hard
并非它们轻而易举，而是它们困难重重
Many years ago, Great British explorer George Mallory

Was asked 'why did he want to climb it?
'曾经有人问他为什么要攀登珠峰？
He said 'because it is there

Well space is there and we're going to climb it
好的，太空就在那儿，而我们将投入探索
And the moon and the planets are there
月球和其他星球就在那儿
And new hopes for knowledge and peace are there
获得知识与和平的新希望就在那儿
And therefore as we set sail we ask God's blessing
因此，在我们启程之时，我们祈求上帝能够保佑
On the most hazardous, and dangerous, and greatest adventure.On which man has ever embarked
