慈しみの染花/ FLOWERS IN BLISS
花の一生は愛おしく美しい。
新芽がひょっこり顔を出した幼いすがた。
香り立ち溢れんばかりに咲き誇ったすがた。
枯れ落ちてゆく気高いすがた。
その時々に放つ一瞬の輝きに感動を覚え
いつしか白い布を染め、創りあげた花・花・花。
感じるままに咲かせた花の名は、染花。
平和への祈りを込め、ここに慈しみの染花を捧げます。
秦碧
The single life of a flower is so affectionate and beautiful.
A bud sprouting is like an infant child going out into the world.
A flower full-blooming is so proud of its fragrance.
Withered at the end, yet dignity remains in its noble life.
Touched deeply by the light of bliss in every moment,
I came to create “ somebana” from a piece of white cloth dyed
to bloom as a single flower, flowers, and Flowers.
Flowers into which I poured life became alive and I gave them a name, “ somebana”.
With my heartfelt prayer for peace,
I dedicate my “somebana ” to you as a message of bliss.
