Translation
Bilingual
No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century
That human affairs were being watched
From the timeless worlds of space
No one could have dreamed we were being scrutinized
As someone with a microscope studies creatures
That swarm and multiply in a drop of water
Few men even considered the possibility of life on other planets
And yet, across the gulf of space
Minds immeasurably superior to ours
Regarded this earth with envious eyes
And slowly and surely
They drew their plans against us
ย
Abruptly, the sound ceased
No one could have dreamed we were being scrutinized
As someone with a microscope studies creatures
That swarm and multiply in a drop of water
Few men even considered the possibility of life on other planets
And yet, they drew their plans against us
