You may refer to the code below.

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WSrROsk5W0lEytDayNlaK1YlWSrFOBfJNrE2VYmMB", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Column1 = _t, Column2 = _t]),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Custom", each Table.FromColumns({Text.Split([Column1], ";"),Text.Split([Column2], ";")})),
    #"Expanded Custom" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Added Custom", "Custom", {"Column1", "Column2"}, {"Custom.Column1", "Custom.Column2"})
in
    #"Expanded Custom"
