Translate Japanese to English?

I have a picture with Japanese writing - could someone translate it to english for me?


It is located at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/50341179@N02/4620268129/





I believe it is a name.





Thanks!|||It has 6 kanji letters on it, 司、也、升、夫、火、井 in order.





Meanings:


司:to rule / an officer


也:be


升:a measuring box/ *to rise


夫:a husband


火:fire


井:a well





I don't think it is a name. It seems a line from a Chinese poem. Anyway, it's not modern Japanese.





Edit:


Sorry, but the first kanji is 可, not 司. Also, the fourth kanji could be 天、not 夫.





可:possible/ can


天:heaven





Then, it faintly implies that somthing or somebody can fly to the heaven.|||There are no particular meaning to these selection of words as a whole. but individually,





可: Possible, able I don't think it's 司:to rule / an officer


也:also


开 : to open or it could be 升:a measurement, to raise, rise, elevate


夫:a husband


火:fire


井:a well





good luck
