A flash of iron-fire, a nation’s eternal spirit

It is not merely sparks, but artisans writing upon the night sky—

with iron as their brush, and fire as their ink—

a blazing oath of devotion to their land.

Originating in the Spring and Autumn period, flourishing during the Ming and Qing dynasties,

 iron-smelting fireworks once served as an ancient ritual

where craftsmen honored heaven and earth,

and prayed for prosperity and peace of the nation.
