Notes About The Poem

Originally 1985 in Japanese, 2015-2020 in English.
I composed this as a theme song of 'Osora de duette' (='Duette in Cosmos'),
which was a comical manga in 1985.

From 2012, I'm trying to re-make it as narrated poems in English.

I recently updated this song data by Synthesizer V using Voice DB 'Eleanore'.
It's a great pleasure to upload it. Please enjoy it.

Listen to poem:

Duette In Cosmos

My Dearest God,
  let me have wings to fly
   far through the sky
And let me have
  strength that you have
   enough to go on for ever
Please watch my will
  knowledge and skill
   for my progress and effort
May I make ready to take off to the
   new tomorrow ?


My Dearest God,
  let me have heart to try
   all tears to dry
And let me have
  wisdom you have
   enough not to stop never
Please bless my soul
  duty and role
   for my friends and comfort
May I make ready to pray for
   happiness to my friends ?


When I'm in resting in calm and silence,
Faces of people I met in sequence
Come to my memories with smiling blessed
Saying "Do your best !"


My Dearest God,
  let me have love filled by
   dreams and being nearby
And let me have
  patience you have
   enough to trust friends whenever
Please grow my scale
  vessel and rail
  Journey's long, yet life is short
May I make ready to take wish
  to my precious everyone ?
