Lyrics Translation:
Once you have taken flight,
You'll decide,
Gaze towards the sky, you'll know that
That is where your heart will feel at home.

Once you have taken flight,
You'll decide,
Gaze towards the sky, you'll know that
That is where your heart will feel at home.

The great bird
Will take his first flight toward the sun,
Sweeping over the great Mount Ceceri,
Filling the universe with wonder and glory.
Once you have taken flight,
You'll decide,
Gaze towards the sky, you'll know that
That is where your heart will feel at home.

Man will be lifted by his own creation,
Just like birds, towards the sky...
Filling the universe with wonder and glory.
Once you have taken flight,
You'll decide,
Gaze towards the sky, you'll know that
That is where your heart will feel at home.
Glory!
