Secret Fire 火蓮
Shiva’s Dance
scorches the earth,
fire-lotus ablaze
on clouds of saffron dust
scorches the earth,
fire-lotus ablaze
on clouds of saffron dust
Turning and turning
He picks up speed;
a thousand faces born of dust
swirl and rise up into the sky,
enveloping desires,
consuming worlds,
burning away time –
Shiva’s eyes meet mine:
four flames become One.
Nothing but blinding whiteness,
not even a hint
of my old shadow –
only the dance,
and the white white heat,
undoing all the ties that bind.
濕婆的舞步
灼燒大地。
朵朵火蓮盤旋向天,
一片藏紅塵雲瞬間翱起
迴旋再迴旋
舞急處千迴百轉;
千萬張臉孔
生於塵灰,
扶搖上天,
捲起世間一切慾念
燒化三千大千世界
燒化時間 –
濕婆的舞步
反映我的雙眼
四炬目光熔合成一
眩白 –
三世皆空。
所有心結和桎梏都化解了;
連我最後一絲昔影
都消失了
只剩下無形的舞步
和一片熾白
