at full speed
As Voltaire might have said,
“ And yet it all works”
Did you know, dear friends, that our galaxy
Dash through space,
at a speed of 2.3 million kilometres per hour,
How does it not disintegrate?
Why does the sun keep shining?
How the earth turns around sun
While it is also running at 2.3 million km/h?
I know, there is in this perfect mechanics
Something divine,
As Voltaire wrote,
“ I cannot think that this clock exists
And that it has no watchmaker.”
On our way, no obstacles,
Only a cluster of galaxies 150,000 light-years away
Ahead, nothing can stop our galaxy,
“ And yet it all works”
Could have written voltaire,
at 2.3 million km/h We can safely
Drinking our coffee, isn’t that fantastic?
