Verse 1 Shining like a diamond in the early morning sky, A goddess to the poets, a beacon to the eye. But beneath the clouds of sulfur, where the acid rain won’t fall, Lies a world of fire and pressure, the harshest fate of all. Chorus Venus burning, brighter than the stars, Evening light and morning, seen from Earth afar. A sister to our planet, yet so cruel, so near, A furnace wrapped in mystery, a beauty fierce and clear. Verse 2 Mountains rise like temples, volcanoes breathe in stone, Plains of ancient lava, a surface carved alone. The winds race round in hours, though the planet turns so slow, And the sunrise in the west is the strangest sight to know. Chorus Venus burning, brighter than the stars, Evening light and morning, seen from Earth afar. A sister to our planet, yet so cruel, so near, A furnace wrapped in mystery, a beauty fierce and clear. Bridge Venera touched your surface, and lived but for a breath, A fleeting look at shadows in the furnace of your death. Still the sky calls out your name, the brightest one we see, A warning and a wonder in our cosmic family. Final Chorus Venus burning, cloaked in clouds so high, Your secret heart is hidden from the naked eye. Sister of the sunlight, forever fierce, unknown, A jewel that shines in heaven, yet a fire all your own.
