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?
