May the Gods Thank Him

I don't know where to begin, I lack the words to express how I miss the one who initiated me... 

This man lived a total simplicity, Master Naba was everything. 

He straightened my life; he taught me the ways of truth; this man made me balanced. 

He has taught me the difference between good and bad. 

I thank him 

For he showed me where I'm coming from and where I should be going. 

I thank him 

I found his smile and kindness 

Thanks to this man I returned to the path of my Ancestors. 

Thanks to this man I found my true identity. 

Thanks to this man I have the impression of having been re-born. 

Thanks to this man I have become aware of the value of my Ancestors. 

Thanks to this man my tears and my sorrows were transformed into smiles and joy. 

Thanks to this man I now tell my own story, my own cosmogony.
