.i do na djuno lo du'u do to'e morji

And here's a back-translation:

do to'e morji ro pu se djuno be do

- You forget all of your past knowledge.

.i do cirko ro do seldju .e ro do selmo'i .e ro do tertoi

- You lose all your knowledge and all your memories and all your ways
of trying.

.i ki'u bo do bredi lo nu se galfi lo denpa vanbi be do

- Because of this, you are ready to be changed by your waiting environment.

.i do na djuno lo du'u do to'e morji

- You do not know that you forget.

.i ki'u bo do na badri le fasnu

- Because of this, you are not sad about the event.
