Discover Kansas: A Journey Through Stars, Sunflowers, and Spirit!

 A country song honoring Kansas through stories of prairies, cowboys, rivers, and the proud legacy of the Sunflower State.

LYRIC:

**"Ad astra per aspera,"** that's what they say,  

To the stars through trials, we'll find our way.  


Golden fields where the wheat waves high,  

Under the Flint Hills' endless sky.  

Santa Fe trails where wagons rolled,  

Kansas whispers stories bold.  


Sunflowers sway in the prairie breeze,  

Western Meadowlark sings with ease.  


Stars over Kansas, lighting our way,  

Through the open plains where we will stay.  

Where hills roll gently and rivers flow,  

In the Sunflower State, our roots will grow.  


Amelia’s courage in the open air,  

Dwight’s wisdom, a leader rare.  

On the Chisholm Trail, the cowboys ride,  

Where the bison roam and the plains collide.  


Cottonwood trees by the riverside,  

Kansas pride, we’ll never hide.  


Stars over Kansas, lighting our way,  

Through the open plains where we will stay.  

Where hills roll gently and rivers flow,  

In the Sunflower State, our roots will grow.  


The prairie fire burns, but life renews,  

In Kansas soil, we plant our truths.  


Stars over Kansas, lighting our way,  

Through the open plains where we will stay.  

Where hills roll gently and rivers flow,  

In the Sunflower State, our roots will grow.  


Under Kansas skies, our spirits soar,  

In the Sunflower State, forevermore.
