This is the original opening monologue to Star Trek:
Space...the final frontier...endless...silent...waiting. This is the story of the United Space Ship Enterprise...its mission...a five year patrol of the galaxy where no man has gone before...a STAR TREK.
Here it is - Star Trek theme sung by Nichelle Nichols (Uhura)

I learned the lyrics back in the 70s from my John Brimhall's Easy Popular Piano Pieces songbook. Still have the book. Still have the lyrics memorized. 😂
@duglop I'm glad they changed it.
Here are the lyrics to the theme (yes there are lyrics) - Also, if I can find it again, there is an actual recording from Nichelle Nichols (Uhura) singing it
Beyond the rim of the starlight,
my love is wandering in star flight.
I know he’ll find
In star clustered reaches
Love, strange love
A star woman teaches.
I know his journey ends never.
His Star Trek will go on forever.
But tell him while
He wanders his starry sea,
Remember,
Remember me.
