Trampling On Darkness

Praying to the light
Trampling the night's basilisk
With its seven heads
Crushing serpent and lion
Trampling the legless dragon 
Through the light stream that crowned her

This is a bussokusekika poem, a form of japanese poetry with the syllable count of 5-7-5-7-7-7

This is based on the spiritual account from the Pistis Sophia Chapter 66.
