"The Eyes of Truth" is a 1994 song by the German New age band Enigma. This single was one of Enigma's four singles from its second album, The Cross of Changes. The video for this song was recorded in the rural areas of Nepal.
Similar with "Age of Loneliness", the song featured samples of Mongolian Folk Music (most notably Alsyn Gazryn Zereglee (Алсын газрын зэрэглээ)) and samples taken from Anne Dudley's album Songs from the Victorious City. It also contains samples from U2's song "Ultraviolet (Light My Way)", Peter Gabriel's "Kiss That Frog", NASA retransmissions sampled from "Mare Tranquillitatis" performed by Vangelis, and Genesis' "Dreaming While You Sleep".
In 1999, the song was popularized from its artistic use in the worldwide trailer for the movies The Matrix, and also for The Long Kiss Goodnight. As is the trend for many trailers, the song did not appear in either film or soundtrack.
For the case of The Matrix, the song was sampled for the theatrical trailer release.
The Eyes of Truth

Alsyn Gazryn Zeregleenn
Aduu shig mal shig torolzonoo khuoo
In the distance the mirage stands out like horses and cattle.
Very glad to see my beloved son.
Je me regarde
Je me sens
Je vois des enfants
Je suis enfant ! I look at myself
I feel myself
I see the children
