Translation Notes[]
- ↑ About the mantra at the beginning and the middle - I did quite a bit of research at was able to determine that this is the traditionally chant of Dakini in Shingon Buddhism (Japanese esoteric Buddhism). As for the meaning, I found out that the words here are a corruption of Sanskrit words - for example, "on" in the song is the traditionally "om" sound that associates with meditation; om is said to contain the universe, as it encompasses all sounds, from the back of the throat to the lips. However, the Sanskrit and then corrupted here is not ordinary Sanskrit: "In the Vajrayana [Esoteric Buddhism]tradition, now preserved mainly in Tibetan lineages, it has long been recognized that certain important teachings are expressed in a form of secret symbolic language known as saṃdhyā-bhāṣā, 'Twilight Language'." (Bucknell, Roderick & Stuart-Fox, Martin (1986). The Twilight Language: Explorations in Buddhist Meditation and Symbolism) Aquatheories additional notes: Hri(h) means modesty, parivara means retinue, svaahaa means so be it and sabala means powerful (I'd translate it as mighty one). I am unfamiliar with Sanskrit grammar, and sounds hold religious effect and meaning in that language
- ↑ This is a poetic phrase literally meaning "At the ox's hour 3AM, where (even) grass and trees sleep (are still as if dead)." In the ox's hour, evil spirits are most active. Also, I removed Panda's note but it said that "shijima saite kakeru mmono" could mean "Someone who runs as silence tears them up". Unfortunately I lack the linguistic skills and English and Japanese skills to explain why I removed the note but I'll just say semantics. (Not (entirely) the reason i removed it, sorry Panda!)
- ↑ "Death agonies" is not actually connected to "the flesh and blood of the living." The Japanese is just sort of like "flesh and blood of living death moans. " So perhaps that's wrong, but it seemed most probable. Aquatheories's addition: Sometimes the と (and) particle is omitted, or ある (there is, to have), and the verb だ (to be) too in Japanese, and in songs they remove verbs from expressions and end them in を (object signifier)
- ↑ So /kokuu/ (void) is just a character away from the word /kokuuzou/, meaning "Akasagarbha, the Receptacle of Void," a Buddhist term. Dakini is literally sky dancer. Also panda, I removed your next translation note because of the context dependent nature of Japanese. It explained how bosom could mean pocket.
- ↑ "I'll eat up your life.." the use of certain Japanese words and sound changes such as 食らって → 喰らうて → 喰ろうて, the word やる and など makes this line have a spiteful connotation
- ↑ The word 阿鼻叫喚 was translated as what it originally meant, usually means "pandemonium" or "cries in agonizing pain" (Jisho doesn't have every word, and sometimes doesn't explain the word correctly/fully)
- ↑ There is no at or particles/verbs here and it makes the sentence extremely difficult to parse. Particles that can be omitted are だ (to be), and が (subject), は, (This sentence will need to be checked). This sentence can just be read as "Lotus pond, (idle) end (more likely place)/result (of idleness/unconditioned things) This line is so vague and requires extensive research, also lotuses mean rebirth
- ↑ in a poem written in the 1000s AD by Fujiwara no Mototoshi, in which the phrase "chigiri okishi" was translated "greatly promised." So I used "solemn promise" here.
