Welcome to the forum.
Please become accustomed to provide decent context info of your problem.
It is always helpful to carefully and detailedly phrase a request, and to support it with system info like OS and shell, related environment (variables, options), preferred tools, adequate (representative) sample input and desired output data and the logics connecting the two including your own attempts at a solution, and, if existent, system (error) messages verbatim, to avoid ambiguities and keep people from guessing.
Being a newbie, you might want to learn to "write" a decent specification (on top of the remarks here above) with due care, avoiding or, resp., answering questions before they arise. Here:
- you seem to need more than a single line, not - as you write - a row.
- in your desired output, there's a "text" - where does that come from?
- how and why (by which rules) have 5 "b"s been converted to 4 "b"s?
- is there any underlying structure to be obeyed - I can't see why lines 7 and 8 are being appended to a "text" or nothing and transferred to the start of file, then lines 4 - 6 being appended to lines 1 - 3?
Why should anyone care more for your request than you do?
