The war is over and Troy has fallen now
Ten long years of combat
It's levelled to the ground
Let us get ready just to start our journey home
We've been waiting such a long time
Twelve vessels are to take us to our zone
To sweet Ithaca
All the cosmic signals will help us navigate
Find another time-warp to cross the astral gate
We're setting out to be back in outer space
And the sky is never starless
While we are jumping into hyperspace
Twelve spaceships, stellar men-of-war
Hurtling through the void
New adventures call
The Universe unfolds
Hello
Large bright stars
They light up the way
Guide us night and day
Yet we're longing for
The place that we call home
For our Ithaca
There's one more planet we see in front of us
Home of the Ciconians
And lotus-eating tribes
Prepare the landers to go there and get some stuff
'Cos we need a lot of fuel
And many other things that we want
So we must be tough
Some of these Ciconians are nasty guys indeed
They've killed many troopers in darkness
During sleep
Raise the alarm and again we have to run
We are flying in our landers
Straight to the lotus-Eater's forest land
Twelve spaceships
Lotus-Eaters
Thank you all
For your kindness and your warmth
You have fed us with your lilies
Made us sleep and dream with you
It feels so good
Let us stay here
We are happy, born anew
Wake up soldiers from your torpor
Leave this planet really soon
Really soon
