Smooth English translation

The time the Starburst erupted.

It was like a stranger who snatched away piglets;
It was like a mountain on which no plants grew;
It was as though it had a vicious hook.

However, it did not have piercing claws;
For during it, I experienced the joy of a child;
During it, the trampled plants sprouted in hope.

And so, the Starburst shone upon the plants and me.
