Ode to the Sun

Hail you, Sun!Please stop and listen to me, I pray to you, and I am ecstatic, and at this moment, my heart is burning as you are, and she splits the clouds and flies, and she flies with her wings, and sings of your divine power.

Ah, my voice so pleasant, tearing through the drifting clouds, rising towards the great sun, drowning out the thunder with sublime words, in that blue firmament, please suspend your solemn travel.

Ah, the fire in my heart illuminates my train of thought, helps my faint eyesight, and my longing eyes are no longer dazzled by the bright light, and I can raise them boldly, and even dare to stare at your face, it is full of holy light and radiance!

I love you deeply, Brilliant Sun!

I'm a kid, my life is just beginning, and I always have a pair of curious eyes, and I want to fly through the blue sky to you;

As your massive chariot gallops along the tracks

How obsessed I am!

The east rises at the top of the golden peak, and the ocean adorns it with countless droplets of water

Even in the blurred horizon of the West, your bright sun will illuminate it, and you will unfurl your brightly colored flags and bathe the whole world with pure beams of light.

The sunlight that shines from between your broad brows is the great source of all living things and all things, your tranquil and magnificent disk.

Releasing a rich amount of light and heat, it spirals over the blue sky between the dazzling and colorful spheres.

You quietly climb to the golden peak, commanding in the high heavens, draped in dancing flames and dazzling brilliance, and riding the fiery red horses galloping.

You rush forward at an invincible pace, straight to the steep peak, and then scatter the colorful beams of light on the rolling ocean, and in the deep and humid place, your light fades away, and eternity swallows up another agenda.

How many generations have you passed, O sun, and the time that the sea has swallowed up is beyond measure, no matter how powerful a nation, no matter how arrogant an empire, no matter how dazzling and how great a treasure, what are they in front of you?

The vast expanses of fallen leaves in the forest withered and drifted, swirling and dancing in the storm until the wind blew them away.

Only you are spared the divine punishment, and the Lord has poured rain on the heads of men and animals, and you have seen this sinful world drowned in the sea

The imprisoned winds swept across the sea, setting off huge waves;

A deafening roar of thunder roared through the cracks of the clouds;

With a groan, the earth shook on the diamond shaft, and over the mountains and plains rose a great roaring ocean, a mound made of water.

The depths of the sea are shaking incessantly, and you, our Lord, have just arisen from your sleep and have built your throne above the stormy ruins;

Thou art dressed in solemn black, and your face radiates a faint light until the clouds clear, and thou shalt radiate a thousand rays of light to the new world.

Have you seen that the times are like endless waves, one after another, alternating with each other, violently hitting and fueling the waves on the ocean of Haohan, and you chase after me?

You, the proud and triumphant sun, shine with a unique light, and now you have become an eternal witness to the passage of time.

Do you want to stop and let that great furnace burn forever, so that the scorching flame never goes out?

Are you going to continue to walk proudly through the heavenly court, watching countless ages of decline and prosperity while you stand by and maintain a firm reign from beginning to end?

Not so – death is the conqueror, and it will take possession of you and transcend you in a moment that no one knows.

Who knows?Maybe you are just a Mars of another sun, and that sun is bigger and brighter than you in another and bigger world, more brilliant than we imagined.

Enjoy yourself, O sun, while you are in the prime of life, when the day that men fear will come at last, and this day will be laid down by the hands of God, who rules over all things).

You will fall from your throne, and the great ball of fire will be encompassed for eternity, and you will be crushed to pieces, and you will be drowned in an endless sea of fire, your whirlwind will be finished, your strength will be exhausted, and the pure flame will be extinguished in the darkness, and your glorious years will end, and the night will engulf you whole, leaving no light or heat behind.

Translated by Huang Guiyou.
