SIC ITUR AD ASTRA








gideio mina vo' ke hina vashk'ila veh
moggl'ohk'a vina veh, hu shi'na ke vole?
pr'iya tosh kahi'na kay, vo ku'na vina hei?
birash'mar'i khllarin'a, hi'na kay, vo h'eione bina?
ha'vina, thr'a ina vok'a ne
i'loha'ina ya'ne

(do you remember the vortex through which
we passed on our way to this world
of fascination & perplexity?
do you remember the suffering, my friends?
the nightmares we lived that we thought would
never end? if you remember,
then let us get on with our task
& return whence we came
in glory & triumph)
