マチゲリータ (Machigerita) - タロンギ (Tahrongi)

Singer, Lyrics, Music : Machigerita

The comment on the original Niconico video was:

「頭に、芽が出テ、植物が、はエて、はエテ、しマッ、た。」
頭に芽が出た、少年タロンギ君の愉快なお話。
おとといくらいまで、レベル上げしてました。大体PygmaioiとCanyonRarabでした。
内容とFFXIは関係ないですごめんなさい。

"From my head, ivy sprouts and, plants, grO, GroW..."
A pleasant story of a young Tahrongi boy from whose head ivy grows.
Until about the day before yesterday I have been levelling. Mostly with Pygmaioi and CanyonRarab.
What I'm talking about has no relation to FFXI. Sorry.

タロンギ
歌：マチゲリータ

芽吹いた頭からずるりと伸びる蔦が群がり
ただ寄生されていく僕の口から粘糸。

みしみし、枝が育つ。
びちゃびちゃ、こぼれていく。
生温い優しさで。

タロンギ。

歪んでとろけている瞼から生えていく緑。
喉が渇けばすぐに如雨露から。

もう僕の手は動かない。

たくさん落ちてくるさ。
実った果実が素敵。
生臭い匂いだね。

タロンギ。

萎れてく脳みそが蟲食いになって穴だらけ。
溢れ出す蛆虫と豊かな食卓を囲んで腐乱。

ぐんにゃり笑顔で、僕だけの体は腐った。
喉が渇けばすぐに如雨露から。

死にたいのに死ねなかった。

TARONGI
Song: Machigerita

Mebuita atama kara zururi to nobiru tsuta ga muragari
Tada kisei sarete iku boku no kuchi kara nenshi.

Mishimishi, eda ga sodatsu.
Bichabicha, koborete iku.
Namanurui yasashisa de.

TARONGI.

Yugande torokete iru mabuta kara haiete iku midori.
Nodo ga kawakeba sugu ni jouro kara.

Mou boku no te wa ugokanai.

Takusan ochite kuru sa.
Minotta kajitsu ga suteki.
Namagusai niyoi da ne.

TARONGI.

Shioreteku noumiso ga mushikui ni natte ana darake.
Afuredasu ujimushi to yutaka na shokutaku wo kakonde furan.

Gunnyari egao de, boku dake no karada wa kusatta.
Nodo ga kawakeba sugu ni jouro kara.

Shinitai noni shinenakatta.

Tahrongi
Song: Machigerita

Gathering ivy that swingingly grows from my budded head.
Sticky threads come from my mouth as I am being parasited from.

Crackingly, branches grow.
Splashingly, it overflows.
With a half-hearted tenderness.

Tahrongi.

Greens that grow from slanted, melting eyelids.
When I grow thirsty, immediately from a watering can [I get water].

My hands no longer move.

A lot will come falling.
The ripened fruits are lovely.
What a bloody smell.

Tahrongi.

My withering brain is full of holes, having become bug food.
A decomposition, surrounding the rich dining table with the overflowing maggots

With a limp smile, my body rotted away.
When I grow thirsty, immediately from a watering can [I get water].

Even though I wanted to do, I could not.


Notes:

• For the title I stuck with the romanization Machigerita used for his Youtube video.

1. "Namanurui" means both something along the lines of "lukewarm" as well as "half-hearted".
2. "Namagusai" means something like "raw fish" or "raw meat". Something raw that had been alive. Hence "bloody".
3. This sentence had me thinking for a moment or two. The nuance I felt was "Sitting around the richly made dining table, together with the maggots that are overflowing" (maybe overflowing -from- the dining table)
4. What I translated as "my body" holds the nuance "the body that is mine alone".
