Born Fire

A fire has been born
The flame engulfed the silence, splitting apart the dark
The fire grew chasing the illusion of the sun
that couldn’t be reached

A loud noise pouring through the crack
A flash of light that burns the eyes
Tempted by the beautiful flicker I believed
That the only reason for existence to burn
Even more intensely
In the end, it devoured itself and scattered to ashes
A paradoxical existence
A vanishing point of blue light in finite time

A fire became ashes
A silence where everything has receded
The unchanging space-time where the moment and eternity
Intertwine
The name that resounds from the lowest depths
The sign of existence etched onto the soul
The fire awakens again
as an ember from within the ashes

The ember, with its resilient heat,
melts the coarse grains to translucence
It illuminated the eyes lost in the darkness of a corner
It wrapped around the frozen feet of a child
who was wandering in the winter forest
The child let out a small breath
Thus, the breath illuminated the fire
The ember reignites with a hot breath
At last, the flame is born

하나의 불이 태어났다
The flame engulfed the silence splitting apart the dark
火は届かない太陽の幻を追いかけて大きくなった。

갈라진 틈으로 쏟아지는 굉음
눈을 태우는 찰나의 섬광
美しいゆらめきに誘われ、
より大きく燃え上がることだけが
存在の理由だと信じていた。
In the end, it devoured itself and scattered to ashes - a paradoxical existence
A vanishing point of blue light in finite time

하나의 불은 재가 되었다
모든 것이 물러난 고요
순간과 영원이 맞물리는 불변의 시공

The name that resounds from the lowest depths, the sign of existence etched onto the soul
火は灰の中から火種として再び目を覚ます。

The ember with its resilient heat
Melts the coarse grains to translucence
闇の片隅で道に迷った瞳を照らした。
겨울 숲을 헤매던 아이의 얼어붙은 발을 감쌌다
아이는 작은 숨을 내뱉었다
그리하여 숨이 불을 밝히었다
火種は熱い息によって再び燃え上がる。
At last, the flame is born
