龍ノ啼ク箱庭拠リ / The Dragon Roars from the Miniature Garden by YowaneP https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm1804377

I'm not dead?

I think I would like to go back and do some translations of old vocaloid songs that I don't fully understand by ear. Songs with poetic and complicated lyrics that are outside of my comfort zone. So... probably not the most accurate of translations.

I'm choosing Blacksaingrain's translation for the embedded video. I don't consider it "worse" than mine, but it reads strangely to me as a native English speaker. I'm happy to defer to it as a second translation done by someone more fluent in Japanese.

夜の帳下りて 月が舞台　照らす The curtain of darkness falls and moonlight sets the stage 私は一人踊るの Where I alone dance これは影の叙事詩誰も知らぬ　物語 This is an epic of shadow, a tale known by none 語られることなき　記憶 A memory that should never be spoken

今宵拝跪す　地の徒が為 Tonight, for you kneeling people of the earth 龍刻縛す　意思の暗闇 I've cursed and bound a dragon in the darkness of my mind 深淵く根を張り Where the roots reach deep

閉ざされた森の中　息潜め待つ Hold your breaths and wait, in the depths of this forest 絡まる蔦断ち　楔外る For you know what it means 意味を　知りて When the bindings and snaking ivy are cut

茨草喰い込む Holding its thorn-eaten body 身体抱き　昇る The dragon rises 災う力解けせど Unable to break the power of the curse 遠く龍啼く空　届かぬ声重ね Its voice cannot reach the sky where distant dragons roar いつか　碧空に帰らん Never to return to the blue skies

此の身体回紆す　血の軌跡を The sound of its squirming heartbeat 准り蠢く　其の鼓動は Lurks deep within 深淵くへ　潜み In the blood circling this body

私の中で彼方　息潜め待つ It holds its breath and waits, in the depths of my body 戒められし身体羨望む Yearning for its bound body 意思の　宿命 Thus is our fate

暗き泉の淵　月が水面　照らす The moon lights the surface of the spring 私の姿映るわ Reflecting my form in the dark depths 今宵流れるのは誰も知らぬ円舞曲 Tonight a waltz known to none is played 歌われることなき　旋律 A melody never to be sung

原始の記憶誘う彼の地を想い It thinks of a faraway place enticed by primordial memories 煌く星達彩る天空は遠く The heavens colored with glittering stars are so far 龍啼く箱庭の中 In this miniature garden where the dragon roars 吐息は灼熱の焔を喚びて It sighs a burning hot flame

深き森の最奥で In the deepest part of the forest 独り彷徨う日々 It wanders day after day 道標は見えると信じて Believing it has found the way 翼の戒めに　秘められし存在 A being isolated by the binding of its wings 制し空へ帰らんと Never to return to the skies it commanded

双頭の龍舞う　遥かなる彼の地は The faraway land where two headed dragons dance 古より変わらずに Has been unchanged since ancient times 月が紅く染まる　約束の其の日を Yearning for the promised day when the moon is dyed red 恋焦がれ焼けた涙頬を伝い堕ちる A burning tear follows its cheek and falls

茨草喰い込む Holding its thorn-eaten body 身体抱き　昇る The dragon rises 災う力解けせど Unable to break the power of the curse 遠く龍啼く空　届かぬ声重ね Its voice cannot reach the sky where distant dragons roar いつか　碧空に帰る日　想い　祈る Praying for the day it returns to the blue skies

You guys have a very nice voice...i saw you awesome cover from a user called Urabe-san! In youtube, he now how to work with yours voicebanks ^-^

Boring non fun PSA in times of artblock

I want to touch on this because I was thinking about it today. I know about the covers from Urabe-san/Tsubaki-kun and there’s another thing mod knows. Spanish.

Sadly, from reading the descriptions, I discovered Urabe-san uses a pirated/pocaloid Hatsune Miku and Rin to produce his covers. That is not ok. This blog doesn’t support pitching down/nightcoring songs or using pirating vocaloids to make derivative covers, it gives Neru and Haku a horrible name and it’s one of the reasons people started disliking them.

If you guys want legitimate Neru (with low Rin config) and Haku covers with project diva PVs i recommend Krystal Petal

Detecting piracy is quite tricky but

+watch out for people who are uuusually from hispanic countries (hate saying this but tbh the promoters of pocaloid and people who run the blog are hispanic, and piracy is not taken seriously there at all. I’m from the spanish speaking community so i know this stuff - -)+mysteriously own a LOT of expensive Vocaloids (he seems to “own” Xin hua, Akari, Yukari, Fukase, Miku, Rin/Len, Flower, Kaito, Meiko, Azuki and Matcha, VY1, Luka, Piko, Kiyoteru, Gakupo, Arsloid, Una, Galaco, Sachiko, Lumi, Rana, Kokone, Unitychan, Nemu, Gumi… come on guys. Not even successful producers who make money from using vocaloid have this amount of vocaloids)+ read the description because sometimes they will shamelessly mention it:

Be careful overall when listening to fanloid covers. Generally, i don’t recommend it, i recommend sticking to original songs. I think people misunderstood the Neru and Haku using other character’s voices -this wasn’t used to make “Neru and Haku covers” but because they needed ANY voice available to create songs about these funny characters and Miku is all they had at the time (and eventually low Rin started being used in Japan as well for some Neru originals when Rin was released). It’s not like they spammed covers or pitched songs for them like we do in the west…

Let’s not forget the fun about fanloids isn’t really the music anyway, but the characters and their personalities! They’re meant to be enjoyed the opposite way of how we enjoy vocaloids. I do enjoy a Neru/Haku “cover” now and again but don’t go hunting for them much because 90% of them are not reliable and probably breaking legality in some way;;

Side note, for fanloid music check out OwataP, YowaneP, NanameueP, KousakuP, YogarasuP, PowercodeP, Sou-san (at piapro), Sekai SeifukuP, AkariP and many more songs you can find in VocaDB if you search for Haku or Neru as vocalists, or nico! Just… mostly anywhere but youtube //sweats

If you ever are so inclined and have the time, could you take a crack at translating YowaneP's "龍ノ啼ク箱庭拠リ" ? I feel the translation available isn't super accurate? If not, understandable. Thanks!

The translation does seem a little off, though I’m not myself terribly interested in translating it--it’s a little long and on first glance seems a little complicated, and I’m just not drawn in by the lyrics, sorry.
