Six Opposites

Earth and heaven was created

as of story the beginning.

By the two of them alighted

those two are each other winning.


Water was aside from water

settled in the next formation.

Light the Son, God made the Daughter,

children two the made sensation.


Land from water was divided

in the following occurrence.

Land established growth three-sided,

being to earth no deterrence.


Day and night was then established

as the challenge of the seven.

By three kinds of lights it vanished

instantly because of heaven.


Fish and fowl was made thereafter

as the working power parted,

made to be of friendly laughter,

both much wanted and much hearted.


Beast and human being followed.

Three to one it all was ending.

By them both the earth is treasured.

By the beast it is not measured.
