Put your hand near the flame
and you will be warmed
Decide to be greedy and put your hand
in the flame, and you will be burned
The same can be applied to love
You have to demonstrate restraint
and be gentle, while offering yourself
If you try to grab at the flame in impatience,
you will be burned
Just as if you expect everything from someone,
you will be disappointed
