farsight
we travel very carefully
watching lest we fail
seeing every stone

so we haven't hurt our vehicle
so precarious it is
so little reserve
but the journey is begun
and is long
so we must change

little by little we must speed up
bit by bit to gear up
steadily to move
and from time to time
stop for repairs
and to renew energies

we need to lift our eyes
to further goals
to use our farsight
