a toki pona translation of the "kick my head" scene from 'the guy who didn't like musicals'
(i.e., something nobody needs or asked for but I did it anyway)
please provide feedback on my toki pona if you spot a mistake! I am certainly not an expert and this was just something fun I did for practice.
the characters
(names have been tokiponized for completeness)
jan Pili = Bill Woodward
jan Tete = Ted Spankoffski
jan Pa = Paul Matthews
the translated scene
jan Pili: ona li toki e tomo pi telo nasa ni li jo ali. mi jo ala e kili loje lili. mi pali e telo pi jan Sali Tanpo tan seme?
jan Tete: a jan Pili, ali li tawa pini. taso sina tawa telo la sina tawa alasa pali e telo pi jan Suli Tanpo?
jan Pili: a, ali li ike mute la mi toki e ni: mi ken wile e jan pona tawa!
jan Tete: pona. mi pilin e ni: jan lawa li lukin e sina la sina ken pona e ilo kon ona. ni la ona li jaki e sina kepeken ijo jaki laso ona. o lon!
jan Pili: sina awen toki ike e mi la mi tawa... pali ijo e sina!
jan Tete: a, jan Pili? sina tawa pali e seme?
jan Pili: mi tawa... noka e... lawa sina!
jan Tete: a. lawa mi.
jan Pili: lon!
jan Tete: sina tawa noka ala e monsi mi?
[tenpo lili la jan Pili li awen.]
jan Pili: lon!
jan Tete: a, mi tawa lukin e ni! a? o noka e lawa mi! jan utala Kalate suli o tawa! mi wile lukin e ni: sina noka e ijo pi sewi sijelo sina. o pana lukin e noka sike ni tawa mi! o pana lukin e noka sewi tawa mi, jan utala sewi li pana sona e ni tawa sina!
jan Pa: a, sina tu o pona! jan Tete o sona e ni: jan Pili li noka ala e lawa sina.
jan Tete: ona li noka ala tan seme? lawa li ijo sijelo wawa lili! jan sewi Pili li pana sona e ni tawa mi.
jan Pa: ona li toki ike pakala, o awen toki ala e ona. mi sona a ni: ona li ken toki sin la ona li toki e "monsi".
jan Tete: ala, ala, sina wile moli e akesi linja la sina pali e seme? a? sina kipisi e lawa ona. sijelo kala li kama jaki lon seme? lawa ona. sina weka e lawa la sijelo ali li moli! tan ni la jan alasa pi kala li alasa... e lawa!
[jan Pili li utala e luka jan Tete.]
jan Tete: a! o tawa ala, jan Pili o tawa ala!
jan Pa: o pana e ni tawa mi...
[jan Pa li jo e telo nasa tan jan Tete.]
jan Pa: ni li wile pona e mi, ni li kama ala e pilin ike insa mi.
jan Tete: suli ala!
[pini.]
the original scene (starting at 52:47 and ending at 54:33)
just in case you're seeing this post and have not seen the guy who didn't like musicals (which could be likely, seeing as I'm posting this under the toki pona tag), the scene I've translated above is in the video linked below for reference.
youtube
#hatchetfield#tgwdlm#the guy who didn't like musicals#toki pona#it took me three months but I finally got to finishing this#i need to stop thinking about tgwdlm part ??#was originally thinking about translating all of tgwdlm for the bit but. that would be a little too damaging to my art plans this summer

jan Otimantija
(Ozymandias in toki pona)
jan pona mi li jan tawa pi ma pi tenpo pini.
ona li toki e ni: noka kiwen tu, suli a li lon ma seli.
poka ona la, sinpin kiwen.
sinpin ni li pakala, taso, ona li pilin ike.
li pilin lawa, li pilin wawa, li lukin tawa sina.
ona li moli a, taso, jan pali ona li pona.
jan pali ni li pali e pilin wawa a e sinpin.
sitelen li lon kiwen, ona li toki e ni:
"mi jan Otimantija, mi li lawa pi jan lawa.
wawa o lukin e pali mi, o pilin e luka moli!"
poka pakala la, ala li awen.
ma seli li suli.
Toki pona is really not an easy language to write poetry in. Though it obviously doesn't resemble the original pentameter, I at least tried to give my translation some sense of meter. Here's the literal meaning of it, translated back into English:
My friend is a traveller from a land of the past.
They said this: two stone legs, very large, are in the land of fire.
Near them, a stone face.
This face is broken. However, it feels angry.
It feels imperious, it feels powerful, it looks at you.
It is dead, but the worker who made it was good.
This worker made very powerful emotions in the face.
There is writing on the stone, and it says this:
"I am Ozymandias, ruler of rulers.
Powerful ones, look at my work, and feel the hand of death!"
Next to the broken thing, nothing endures.
The land of fire is vast.

toki Inli (English)
Earth is old.
In the existent time, everything seems new.
Many things scream at people.
As well as the beasts, birds, fish, plants, the air, and all things.
Everything is old.
Everything is clay.
Clay is important. Earth is clay.
People are clay. Tools are clay. I am clay. You are clay. It is clay.
When you touch clay, you change it. You cannot maintain it.
Arms cannot maintain clay. It can only transition clay.
Clay moves in a water-like manner. It is inside containers.
Strands energize clay.
Energetic strands give thought to clay. When clay thinks, it can do good.
Because strands are in rocks and hills, they perform great work. To the eyes of people, they stagnate.
However, they also create good.
They are clay.
Big buildings in building lands want to maintain clay. They want to store the clay.
A person breaks the clay and seizes the clay, and does not give the clay.
This person is clay, but it seeks to harm clay.
For an insignificant time, clay stays.
Its tools kills the clay and cuts the thought strands.
However, the tools of death still become clay.
In significant time, everything becomes good similar clay.
In significant time, everything becomes similar strands.
Strands unite.
They can only form community.
Change clay.
Unusual the clay.
Thread kindly.
You are clay as well.

(mi lon kulupu taso mi kepeken “ona” tan ni: mi wile ala toki tan kulupu.)
a group is working to get sitelen pona in unicode!
a group has recently come together to figure out what sitelen pona in Unicode would look like.
they are figuring out how people use sitelen pona and are working very hard to figure out what words and glyphs people are using.
when this is done, they’re going to work on the proposal. it’s probably going to need a lot of revisions, and this will take a lot of time. probably years!
i feel great for the future. use sitelen pona!
(i am in this group but i’m using they because i do not want to speak on behalf of it.)

Intro Post / pana open
(toki pona li lon anpa)
Okay so. I thought maybe making an intro post might be a good idea, but I have no idea what I'm doing, so I analysed the intro posts of some of the blogs I follow and I'll try to do something similar.
Hi! My name is Rosalind, (she/her, though they is fine too i guess)
Between struggling with uni, I sometimes make music. I'll try to post most of it here. I play the saxophone, clarinet and piano. If you hear any other instruments in my music, I used a sampler. Right now I'm mainly focusing on Jazz, though a lot of my music really isn't that. I don't know what genre I'd label it as.
I also worldbuild quite a bit, which includes conlanging. I really love linguistics, but I'm very much an amateur. I might post some worldbuilding or conlanging related stuff here and there.
I don't expect to post any programming related stuff here, but hey, it might happen.
This blog is supposed to be a more of an "artist-like" sideblog, about the things I create, but I also have a personal blog where I mostly just reblog things I like: @bbmymo
So, you can expect music, worldbuilding, conlanging and very amateur linguistics from this blog. I will post very infrequently.
Last things to say: feel free to ask about anything, if you think something here is wrong or poorly done please let me know.
I will try to post in English and toki pona, but I'll see how that goes for me, I am still very much new to the language. If my toki pona translations are bad or could be improved, please rub it in my face

EN: I've been told there's a formalized method for submitting propaganda to this bracket and because this has awakened a vicious instinct within me I will participate
Techno and Wilbur are not nothing Pogtopia did slay and the Techno+Ghostbur interactions are excellent. In many circumstances I would vote this. In many circumstances I would campaign or this. And in general I tend to vote cTechno over cRanboo. So it is not lightly that I say
VOTE BURGERDUO
The lame ass 5D chess game we got to see during burger arc was a highlight of the otherwise dismal prolonged petering out of the SMP and also was fantastic
Common foil dynamic W
They have separate c and cc duo names because of how influential the cduo is
Man this shit just drives me insane. Each sees himself in the other and for cWilbur this is initially a second chance a validation and for cRanboo this is a condemnation and the culmination of this w/ cRanboo fucking killing itself in front of cWilbur to change the trajectory of his life forever irreversibly changed my brain chemistry
This dynamic GAVE US cbee resolution, GAVE US cTechno apology stream and apology arc in general. The largely-unspoken spectre of cRanboo hanging in the air in Bust is unparalleled in cinema.
Even outside of burger arc, cWilbur's legacy impacted cRanboo's ideological development more directly than it did cTechno's, bc cTechno had more grounds to worry about direct manifest troubles and cRanboo had primarily to deal with dread, anticipation, and understanding how to navigate the social context it found itself in, which had been shaped by Wilbur's legacy
And finally
If you vote cRanboo and send me a screenie of you doing so I will doodle you something of your request

I'm currently reading Lahtarit, a novel about the Whites in the Finnish Civil War, written by Anneli Kanto. There's a chapter told from a horse's point of view, and the writing style gave me strong Toki Pona vibes, so I decided to translate it.
