Do you see it?
Thin mist covers the sky as dawn breaks through,
Roaring waves surge, sweeping away the earth’s greyness,
Clanking steel chariots of raging fire,
Silently approaches the distance with great might.
Do you see it?
The fire first turns left —
Standing tall, the dreamlike glorious city of Sodom.
Carefully crafted marble slabs,
dazzling gold-lined curtains.
In an instant,
the Scroll of Judgement with red flames in the sky,
consumes every mute and decadent luxury,
Scattering vast ashes of justice.
Do you see it?
The fire then turns right—
Merchants gather like clouds under Babylon.
The immoral woman, whose body is covered with blasphemous names.
Evil overflows the vessel like an erupting volcano,
pouring down on the sky-high Tower of Babel.
In an instant,
the ground reflects a crimson flame.
The Tower of Babel is but a piece of wood,
Crackling in the flames,
Every inch of fiber screams in agony.
Do you see it?
The fire then approaches you.
Holding on to gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay and straw,
How are you planning to build?
Where is your blueprint?
Will your foundation be secure?
In an instant,
When the raging fire’s final trumpets echo throughout the heavens,
Are you
Reduced to ashes?
Or are you
Reborn through the flames?
If you see this
What will you do?
