"Greetings from the moon.
We are greatly anticipating the earth transit which we shall be viewing from the Earth Museum in the Sea of Tranquility.
We will be watching your planet transit our sun with great delight this day [your night].
Will you be watching us?"

Actually, since the Earth will cover the Sun completely as seen from the Moon, it's a Total Solar Eclipse there instead of a Planetary Transit. In fact, Transits are considered eclipse phenomena rather than the other way around.
