Hikashu in NYC, May 2013.
Here's a translation of the words on "Chakra Biraki." The original pronounciations follows.
1. Tengoku Wo Nozokitai [Glimpse into Heaven]
Major thoughts and huge prayers fell into decline,
And everybody just hung their socks.
The practices of Inuits , the places to die in for African elephants,
and the muscles of Indians, all filled the socks.
Would you tell me the way how I should pray?
I want to glimpse into heaven,
Maybe even if it's disappointing.
There's such a mess in the heads.
The gum I'm chewing is also a mess.
Henzel and Gredel ate cakes and were taken in.
Even such perils have no meaning for such insensible people.
If there's Santa Claus, I wonder he let me know the way
How I should hung the socks in my room?
I want to glimpse into heaven,
Maybe even if it's disappointing.
Seeing the invisibles,
Please teach me such an enjoyment.
Hiding the visibles,
Please don't waste your life for doing as such.
An alley of Christmas, a carcass of Santa Claus.
The socks in my room has a lot of holes which someone unknown made.
Please let me know the way how I should spent the day?
I want to glimpse into heaven,
Maybe even if it's disappointing.
2. Mosura No Uta [The Song of Mothra]
introduction:
Welcome, everyone.
We are living in the atomic age.
But people, does that mean there are no mysteries of life?
Have all of its wonders become obsolete?
No! Life is not without its mysteries! Let's go up front.
This mystery is not a dream.
Tonight you will see the original life, the original mystery...
It is what I've discovered in my journey to the South Pacific.
I hope you enjoy the two lovely fairies.
Mothra oh Mothra
With thy everlasting
Mistic life
Respond to prayers of
Thy humble servants
Now resurrect Mothra
Gain a powerful life
Take us under your wing
Protect the peace
The peace is a way to lead us
Everlasting prosperity
3. Damekana?! [No Good?!]
No good?
No good?
No good?
No good.
4. Chakra Biraki [Chakra Opening]
Let me open your chakra.
Let me open your chakra.
Let me open your chakra.
Be here without a name.
Be here without a name.
Be here without a name.
A full of difficulties ahead.
5. Kibanda Bandana [Yellowish Bandana]
Bandana turned yellowish, bandana turned yellowish,
Bandana turned yellowish, bandana turned yellowish.
The heyday of youth has been over.
Mandara appeared, mandara appeared,
Mandara appeared, mandara appeared.
That's respectable.
It's hard to lead a social life.
Space and existence are just out of understanding.
Soap bubbles burst, soap bubbles burst,
Soap bubbles burst, soap bubbles burst.
That's a miscalcuration.
Infrastructure is shaky, nfrastructure is shaky,
Infrastructure is shaky, nfrastructure is shaky.
There's a supposition.
World economy is a mess.
The situation are still recognized superficially.
Tenioha and nǐ hǎo, Tenioha and nǐ hǎo,
Tenioha and nǐ hǎo, Tenioha and nǐ hǎo.
Wondering if the spirit of language is working.
The master refused, the master refused,
The master refused, the master refused.
The humorousness is irritating.
Bandana turned yellowish.
Note: Tenioha are particle words in Japanese grammar. It's actually consisted of four words - te, ni, o, and ha. They may be used as one word. Nǐ hǎo (你好) is "hello" in Chinese. See
wiktionary for details.
