[Intro] Asrava... Cause into cause. Motion into motion. Becoming into becoming. Asrava... [Verse 1] One thing follows another. The wheel already knows the way. A thought becomes a motion. A motion leaves another cause. What came before continues, giving rise to what comes next. Beginningless, the turning. Beginningless, the chain. [Pre-Chorus] But what followed before does not follow now. [Chorus] Samvara... Samvara... The sequence finds no next. Samvara... Samvara... What was moving does not carry forward. Asrava-nirodhah samvarah. Here, nothing follows. [Instrumental] [Verse 2] No hand has erased the past. No debt has disappeared. What is bound remains to ripen. What has gathered still must fall. But no new thread is added here. No further link is forged. [Pre-Chorus] What has begun need not continue. What followed before does not follow now. [Chorus] Samvara... Samvara... The sequence finds no next. Samvara... Samvara... Cause reaches this moment and finds no continuation. Asrava-nirodhah samvarah. Here, nothing follows. [Break] Gupti. Samiti. Dharma. Anupreksha. Parishahajaya. Charitra. [Instrumental build] [Bridge] The wheel turns because turning gives rise to turning. Until one cause finds no next. Not release from what is bound. Not erasure of what has been. Only this: No new binding. Samvara. [Final Chorus] Samvara... Samvara... What followed before does not follow now. Samvara... Samvara... The sequence finds no next. Asrava-nirodhah samvarah. Samvara... [Outro] Cause into cause... Motion into motion... Then... nothing follows.
