Funeral

葬列

Sōretsu

      今朝(けさ)は妙なメイルを拝受(はいじゅ)しました
 Kesa wa myō na mēru o haiju shimashita
      This morning, I received a strange text
      其処(そこ)に出生の意志が載つて(のって)居り
 Soko ni shussei no ishi ga notteiri
      Inside was written the will of birth
      現在(いま)は、酸素を押し返さ(そ)うと必死です
 Ima wa, sanso o oshikaesō to hisshi desu
      Now, I force back oxygen and face my death
      まう(もう)亡骸は消去完了
 Mō nakigara wa shōkyō kanryō
      The remains have already vanished completely
      何處(どこ)にも桃源郷(とうげんきょう)は無いと云ひ(いい)ます
 Doko ni mo tōgenkyō wa nai to iimasu
      It’s said there’s no utopia anywhere

    僕は、兩(りょう)の肢(あし)から認知しました
    此処(ここ)に半分の意味を見出して
    Boku wa, ryō no ashi kara ninchi shimashita
    Koko ni hanbun no imi o miidashite
    Here, where I was born from between two legs
    I begin to discover the meaning of half
      現在(いま)は、酸素を吸ひ切つて(すいきって)しまふ(しまう)準備中です
 Ima wa, sanso o suikitte shimau junbichū desu
      Now, I prepare to draw my last breath of oxygen
      亡骸(なきがら)に弁護は不要
 Nakigara ni bengō wa fuyō
      The remains need no defense
      何處(どこ)にも桃源郷(とうげんきょう)が無いのなら
 Doko ni mo tōgenkyō wa nai no nara
      If there’s no utopia anywhere

      お造り致しませう(しょう)
 Otsukuri itashimashō
      Let us build one
      生む(うん)で廃棄する勇氣(ゆうき)
 Unde haiki suru yūki
      The courage to build and throw away
      空(くう)を斬つて(きって)ゆく庖丁(ナイフ)
 Kū o kitteyuku naifu
      The knife that cuts through emptiness
      今日(きょう)、(と)胎盤(たいばん)、(と)明日(あした)
 Kyō to taiban tō ashita
      Today, the placenta, and tomorrow

僕を食(しょく)しても植(う)わらない理由(わけ)は

Boku o shoku shite mo uwaranai wake wa

I am eaten, but I remain unsowed, because

渾(すべ)て獨りぼつち(ひとりぼっち)だから

Subete hitoribotchi dakara

Everything is loneliness

    偖(さて)は、こんな輪廻(りんね)と交際をする
    業(わざ)が、お嫌ひ(い)なのでせう(なんでしょう)、当然です
    Sate wa, konna rinne to kōsai wo suru
    Waza ga, okirai nandeshō, tōzen desu
    Now, you may despise the burden of associating
    With this cycle of reincarnation; it’s only natural
    未(ま)だ何(なん)の建設も着工してゐ(い)ない
    白紙に還す予定です
    Mada nan no kensetsu mo chakkō shiteinai
    Hakushi ni kaesu yotei desu
    It’s been arranged that we’ll return to a blank page
    Where nothing’s yet been constructed
      お顔をさあ、拝見させ(し)て下さい
 Okao o saa, haiken sashite kudasai
      Please, come and let me see your face
