Translation
Bilingual
No one would have believed in the early years of the 21st century
That our world was being watched by intelligences greater than our own
That as men busied themselves about their various concerns
They observed and studied
The way a man with a microscope might observe the lives of the creatures
That swarm and multiply in a drop of water
With infinite complacency, men went to and fro about the globe
Confident of our empire over this world
Yet across the gulf of space, intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic
Regarded our planet with envious eyes, and slowly
And surely, drew their plans against us
