ʻOumuamua [The First to Arrive] [Spanish translation]

ʻOumuamua

From a far and distant past, it came

Making its long journey across the blackest of void

ʻOumuamua

To our humble hearth of Earth, it reached

A message for us contained within its cold and rocky shell

ʻOumuamua

Atop our sacred Mauna Kea1and of Mauna Loa2, it streaked

Showers of stardust glitter all around

ʻOumuamua

The scout, the messenger, the first to reach, the first to arrive

Its mission, accomplished; the message, received.

ʻOumuamua

Returns to the stars, never to be seen again

But in our memory, forever remains.
