In the beginning, when creation was still new,
God saw that it was not good for man to be alone.
So He gave him a companion —
not a shadow, but a reflection;
not a servant, but a soul equal in light.

Their union was the first harmony —
love that gave meaning to work,
warmth to dreams,
and faith to generations yet to come.

This was the first covenant of hearts,
the purest marriage,
the divine example of what it means to become one.
