Etymology

Borrowed from Arabic: هَا

Cognate with Galician: eis

Cognate with Portuguese: eis

In summary

From Old Spanish he, from Arabic هَا (hā, dialectally hê).
The alternative forms may reflect a reanalysis of he as a verb form, which could then be pluralized heis (cf. veis ‘you see’). Compare Galician eis, Portuguese eis < Old Galician-Portuguese ei.
