Welcome to Gaia! ::


Would anyone mind translating some song lyrics for me? They are in Romanji so I cannot take it to babel fish or anything like that. The song is called Nemuri and it is by the Japanese band Onmyo-Za.

Here are the lyrics.

Madoromi to memai no sawameki no ori de
Ta egataki mujou ni mukumu wae no karada

Sakashiku nakutomo rodon ni arazu
Furushi no neito wo ayashimi hajimeta

Aa kaina no uji itsuwari wo terashi tashite
Fukai nemuri ni osaremaite tao yaide

Konmei to yako ni tadareshi so omi de
Kakegaenu yashago wo hofuru wa e no naira

Oyobide nakutomo oko ni wa arazu
Gangu no ajara suguse wa sabireta

Akai chi ni oji itsu no ma ni ka tasogarete sobareru
Fukai nemuri ni osaremaite tao yaide

Kagayaki mare kuchi de odosu no
Hirameku sono mami ni ukabu wa namite

Aa kaina no uji itsuwari wo terashi tashite
Fukai nemuri ni osaremaji to
Hoshii wo tozashita mama de

Suna no sasoi ni ochiru mae ni sashirobete
Mukau mezame ni yodomanu ishi sono koe wo
i'm not that advanced neutral

It didn't take me long to find this:

ねむり
nemuri
微睡と眩暈の 騒めきの檻で
まどろみ と めまい の ざわめき の おりで
madoromi to memai no zawameki no ori de
堪え難き 亡状に浮腫む我の躯
たえがたき むじょう に むくむ われ の からだ
taegataki mujou ni mukumu ware no karada

賢しく無くとも魯鈍に非ず
さかしくなくとも ろどん に あらず
sakashikunakutomo rodon ni arazu
故しの寝糸を怪しみ創めた
ふるし の ねいと を あやしみ はじめた
furushi no neito wo ayashimihajimeta

嗚呼 肱の蛆 佯を照らし出して
ああ かいな の うじ いつわり を てらしだして
aa kaina no uji itsuwari wo terashidashite
深い睡りに食され眩いて嫋やいで
ふかい ねむり に おされ まいて たおやいで
fukai nemuri ni osare maite taoyaide

昏冥と夜光に爛れし総身で
こんめい と やこう に ただれし そうみで
konmei to yakou ni tadareshi soumide
掛替えぬ玄孫を屠るは 穢の内羅
かけがえぬ やしゃご を ほふる は え の ないら
kakegaenu yashago wo hofuru wa e no naira

及びで無くとも 烏滸には非ず
およびでなくとも おこには あらず
oyobidenakutomo okoni wa arazu
頑愚の戯 過ぐ世は寂れた
がんぐ の あじゃら すぐ せ は さびれた
gangunoajara suguse wa sabireta

紅い血に怖じ何時の間にか 誰殺がれて
あかい ち に おじ いつ の ま にか たそがれて
akai chi ni oji itsuno ma nika tasogarete
深い睡りに食され眩いて嫋やいで
ふかい ねむり に おされ まいて たおやいで
fukai nemurini osare maite taoyaide

赫き迄 腐で縅すの
かがやきまで くちで おどすの
kagayaki made kuchi de odosuno
閃く其の目見に泛ぶは 泪
ひらめく その まみに うかぶ は なみだ
hirameku so no mamini ukabu wa namida

嗚呼 肱の蛆 佯を照らし出して
ああ かいな の うじ いつわり を てらしだして
aa kaina no uji itsuwari wo terashi dashite
深い睡りに 圧されまじと
ふかい ねむり に おされまじ と
fukai nemuri ni osaremaji to
星を鎖した儘で
ほし を とざした まま で
hoshi wo tozashita mama de

沙の誘いに 堕ちる目方に 差し延べて
すな の さそいに おちるまえ に さしのべて
suna no sasoi ni ochiru mae ni sashinobete
邀ふ醒に澱まぬ意志 其の聲を
むかふ めざめに よどまぬ いし そ の こえを
mukau mezame ni yodomanu ishi so no koe wo
I'd translate it, but I'm far too busy and important. Just don't use an automatic translator. dramallama

I definitely have no intention of trying to put in any more effort than I have. neutral

I would have done it for the practice about two weeks ago, but I have more than enough Japanese homework to deal with at the moment. lol

I have to finish this short story by Hayama Yoshiki. It's called The Letter Inside the Cement Barrel. What incredible naming sense those Japanese have! pirate
Hey thanks everyone! I really appreciate the replies. -_^

Hey guys! I can see that a lot of you are learning Japanese here or want to learn the language. We have a guild called My Japan that has all kinds of people in it who are also trying to learn Japanese. It's free to join! The link is in my signature. You don't have to know any part of the language to participate though: obviously, we have a very open community for people who have any interest in the country.
Hopefully, I'll see you guys soon!!
don't you mean Japanese speakers?
