Copernicus
Copernicus, Copernicus!
Let’s all look at Copernicus!
He’s watching us, observing us,
My friend, where are you now?
In 1491 there lived
a boy, his name Copernicus.
He changed his mind for all of us
My god, where are you now?
By thinking he moved all of us,
The moon, the sun, Copernicus
The church, the gods, Copernicus!
The days the earth stood still.
For is it that the
Sun lies not above us
but below us, dear Copernicus…?
And would you claim the Earth is
not the center of the universe?
[...]
Copernicus, Copernicus!
Can you not feel him, watching us?
Beseeching us, imploring us:
My god, where are you now?
