Lantern Festival Seoul 2014, The Night has a Thousand Eyes Poem


I entered my mind to a poem as seen bright traditional lantern at night.

At night, see bright traditional lantern so I entered my mind to a poem.




The Night has a Thousand Eyes Poem

- Francis W.Bourdillon -

The night a thousand eyes,

the day but one;

Yet the light of the bright world dies

With the dying sun.



the mind has thousand eyes,

And the heart but one;

Yet the light of a while life dies

When its love is done.





Did you find the truth such as light?


Light such as a thousand eyes that is star were bright night.


If the truth such as a sun disappears, night comes...

Did you find the truth such as light?



Jesus said “As long as it is day, we must do the work of him who sent me. 
Night is coming, when no one can work. 
While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”
- Jn 9:4~5 -





What is the meaning of light and darkness recorded in the Bible?  



There is light in the day and darkness in the night in the physical world.  

The light and darkness in the Bible doesn't refer to the physical day

and night in the world,

but the spiritual day and night figuratively compare to the physical day

and night in the world.

The day, that is the light, means the word of life of God,

The night, that is darkness, means the lack of knowledge

without the word of the life of God - no truth, but just worldly word.
