I came into this world naked
With a cry in the beginning.

When I leave this world,
By then, with lots of cries,
That naked body of mine alone
will return to its source.

You find the truth in your body.
How easy meeting of the two needles,
One dropped from the sky and
One flied up to the sky!
Even though the Buddha has said,
Being born as a human,
The chances are so slim and
Harder than meeting of those two needles.

Grieves, pains, hungers
And thirst of desires,
All not fulfilled,
Life...life...life...
Presented by the fans and corpses,
To our remorse,
Alas! We’re just mere guests

What went wrong with us
And what we left behind,
During that period
Of between the cradle and coffin?
Should we question ourselves?
