That thing, that moment, when
you kiss someone and everything
around becomes hazy and the
only thing in focus is you and
this person and you realize that
that person is the only person
that you're supposed to kiss for
the rest of your life, and for one
moment you get this amazing gift
and you want to laugh and you
want to cry because you feel so
lucky that you found it and so
scared that that it will go away
all at the same time.

Along with the Gayatri mantra it is one of the most widely known mantras of contemporary Hinduism.
The mantra reads
Traditional yoga meditation of himayan masters
Om Tryambakam Yajamahe
Sugandhim Pushtivardhanam
Urvarukamiva Bandhanan
Mrityor Mukshiya Maamritat
We Meditate on the Three-eyed reality
Which permeates and nourishes all like a fragrance.
May we be liberated from death for the sake of immortality,
Even as the cucumber is severed from bondage to the creeper.
