There is a time for being ahead,
a time for being behind;
a time for being in motion,
a time for being at rest;
a time for being vigorous,
a time for being exhausted;
a time for being safe,
a time for being in danger.

Stones rise up into the sky
Fire burns down in the water
Ride your horse along the edge of a sword;
Hide yourself in the middle of the flames
Blossoms of the fruit-tree bloom in the fire
The sun rises in the evening
