A star dreamed of being a planet

desiring praise of inhabitants;

A planet dreamed of being a star

for the attention and awe.

 

Dreaming of things,

both you and I;

searching everywhere

for our names in the sky.

 

Stars dream,

planets hope;

we’ve wished

upon them both

you and I.

 

A star dreamed of being a planet

desiring praise of inhabitants;

A planet dreamed of being a star

for the attention and awe.

 

Stars and planets

you and me

hopes and dreams…
