“I awakened the very moment when I first saw you.And I remembered all my thousand births.My joys, my sorrows.Meaning of my life, love of my heart.And realized for whom to search for I was descended again.I enlightened the very moment when I first saw you.And I reminisced my thousand memories.My goals, my destinies.Quest of my mind, mate of my soul.And realized for whom to pursue for I was made again.I resurrected the very moment when I first saw you.And I recollected all my thousand lives.My purposes, my passions.Thirst of my life, reason of my birth.And realized for whom to die for I was born again.”
