The sun sinks
Beneath the earth
The sky darkens
2
You keep the inner light aflame
While outwardly yielding
Hide the light under a bushel no
You're going to let it shine
And not be shaken or swept
By circumstance
Play dumb play slow play luckless
Power is like fastening
A target to your back
When difficulty surrounds
You like a moat
You persevere
Spoof lie omit mislead spin
Don't awaken enmity
Be the stealthy smiler
With the knife beneath your cloak
Let things pass
Because all things must pass
3
With grandiose resolve
A man endeavors
To soar above all obstacles
The Lord of Light is subordinate to
And wounded by the Lord of Darkness
The injury is not fatal
But a hindrance
Help is on the way
The wounded man ignores himself
And thinks only of saving the others
Their great leader is captured
There is no longer hope
And you are able
To leave the scene of disaster
before the storm breaks
4
First he climbed up to heaven,
Then plunged into the depths of the earth.
Here the climax of the darkening is reached
The dark power
held so high a place
it could wound all on the side of the light.
5
In the end evil perishes in its own darkness
Like a squid simmered in its own ink
Because evil must fall at the moment
It has overcome the good,
And consumed the energy
To which it owed its duration.
