VertiGo Puzzle - 1

We've already done a test ride on this... Yes! Kalaimozi in English. Lets call this as "VertiGo" Puzzles hereafter. Thanx to Poongothai for giving this name.

This time, I've jumbled a dialogue from one of my favorite movie "The Matrix". Though its a long sentence, I've selected this phrase as a collection of short and simple words.


Problem structure and purpose: 


A message will be scrambled vertically. There may be one or more sentences. Black squares represent the word or sentence ending. These black squares cannot be moved. Only letters need to be moved up or down in the same column, to find hidden messages.




Important Notes:(For those attempting for the first time) 


1. It looks similar to crossword puzzles which we are familiar with, but is fundamentally very different.
2. The final answer is read from left to right.
3. Any letter can only be moved up or down to any place in the same column. They can even be moved by crossing the black blocks.

Answer for the Test Ride :- 
TWINKLE TWINKLE LITTLE STAR
HOW I WONDER WHAT YOU ARE
UP ABOVE THE WORLD SO HIGH
LIKE A DIAMOND IN THE SKY

Poongothai, Madhav, Nagarajan, Meenu, Muthu, 10amma and Anitha send me the right Answer!!!
