I've been dying since I was born
Traveling life has brought me to
Now and as you look at me with
Certainty in your soul you feel

This as a renewal of renaissance
Hearts awaken from hibernation.
Since before I knew you I always
Longed to be in your circumference

Like one hundred thousand steps
Across the Gobi through dunes of
Each grain like a thousand million
Kalpas of rotation that I remember

I knew before birth and after death
From before I was ever gazed upon
When I found you anew in this place
Was the diffusion of karma through

Many lives creating the momentous
Possibilities to be known from the
Fervor of your heart's wisdom again.

Now that you remember this feeling
It's just that you have always known
This Universe is connecting our light
Like emanations from a central sun

Pulsating by broadcasting its message
Within the entire galaxy to the next as
The cosmic assembly acknowledges
Through our unity we've become alive.
