Madeth gray'll kanji/romaji/translation; tragedy in 6 acts

Recommended Posts

Hello~

Some time ago I translated all of Madeth gray'lls lyrics to German and reading through those translations again I thought that their stories are so cool I should do it once more, this time in English, and share them with everyone who might be interested. orz

This time I also want to include all the small poems and stories printed on booklets and CDs that aren't directly related to a song and arrange everything in a way to make the tragedy a little more coherent because all the songs are loosely connected.

 

I'll post every song individually and add a list with the links here to keep things tidy. ;D

The structure is a somewhat chronical order, but if there are multiple versions I'll mostly choose the newer ones, because Hisuis writing improved quite a lot over time. There will propably be 6 acts, even though I know a classical drama should only have 5...

 

 

Prologue

0.  楽園の黒霧 - Black fog in paradise


Act I : 狂死楽園 - Mad Death Paradise
1.  呪ワレシ華ノ生命… - A cursed blossoms life...
2.  missantroop
3.  黒装束の調べ - Melody dressed in black
4.  狂死曲 - Mad Death Rhapsody
5.  狂死楽園 - Mad Death Paradise

 

Act II : 狂気に満ちた殺人劇 - Murder play abound in madness

6.  白昼夢の惨劇 - Daydream Tragedy

7.  血染めの喜劇 - Bloodstained Comedy

8.  オペラ座の悲劇 - Disaster at the opera house

 

Act III : 十字架の結末・・・ - The end of the cross...

9.  十字架の結末・・・ - The end of the cross...

10.  パラサイト - Parasite

11.  廃人狂イ人形 - Mad cripple puppet

 

Act IV : 罪深き冥華と追憶の懺麗死儀式 - Graceful confession ritual of sinful dark flowers and reminiscence

12.  Le MISERABLE

13.  MOTHER COMPLEX

 

Act V : 魔鏡に映る呪われた罪人達と生命の終焉 - Cursed sinners reflected in the devils mirror and the demise of existence

14.  生命の終焉 - The demise of existence

15.  Zwei   堕胎者ト盲目ナ中絶児・・69日目ノ阻害 - Zwei    An abortionist and a blind aborted child.. termination on the 69th day

16.  「マリア」ガ眠ル懺悔ノ「柩」 - 'Maria' sleeps in a 'coffin' of repentance

17.  黒死蝶ノ花束 - Bouquet of black death butterflies

18.  追憶 - Reminiscence

19. Lucifer

to be continued...

 

 

I'd very much appreciate any help finding mistakes. D; Neither English nor Japanese is my native language and the lyrics are so bizarre it's not always easy. Please note that in some songs the imagery and scenes described are very graphic.

 

Hisui mentioned in Interviews that he started to write grotesque and apocalyptic lyrics after surviving the great Kobe earthquake that killed 6434 people in his hometown, including his girlfriend.

*'狂詩曲', 'kyoushikyoku'  actually means 'rhapsody' in English, but here it's written as '狂死曲' with the kanji reading 'mad-death-song' or 'Madeth song'.
That's why I decided to translate it as 'mad-death-rhapsody' to keep both meanings.

Please note that while the romaji (=sung version) always differs a little from the original in Hisuis lyrics, they do so especially in this one.

The lyrics are in past tense but a big part of them is sung in present tense or no tense at all, many words are simply omitted.

The two middle parts (in quotation marks) are not printed in the booklet, but taken from the 白昼夢の惨劇 live limited single's case. (One version had the lyrics, the other one the middle parts)

『生まれながら4の業を持つ彼は、
“Umare nagara 4 no gō o motsu kare wa,

He who bore the fate of death* by birth had,
神を断絶したため、
Kami o danzetsu shita tame,

In order to extinguish god,
皮膚を剥がされ、
Hifu o hagasare,

His skin flayed,
足枷をつけられて、
Ashikase o tsukerarete,

Strings attached to his limbs,
まるで独楽のように、
Marude koma no yō ni,

And was, just like a spinning top,
愛する人の前を引きずりまわされました。
Aisuru hito no mae o hikizuri mawasaremashita.

Forcefully dragged around in front of the person he loved.
その痛みに快楽を憶えた彼は、
Sono itami ni kairaku o oboeta kare wa,

He who felt pleasure from that pain,
自らの足枷で神を吊し上げ、
Mizukara no ashikase de kami o tsurushiage,

Used his own strings to hang god,
そして糸の切れた操綉人形は、
Soshite ito no kireta ayatsuri ningyō wa,

And the marionette* that eventually cut off it's threads
今日も貴女を求め、
Kyō mo anata o motome,

Was searching for you today, too,
街を彷徨い続けました。』

Continuing to wander the streets..."


明日眠る前にこの話を思い出したら、

Tomorrow when you recall this story before going to bed,
そっと後ろを振り向いてxxxxxxx
Sotto ushiro o furimuite xxxxxxx

Quietly turn to look behind you xxxxxxx

xxxxxxxxxxx If you don't, xxxxxxxxxx
xxxx首を吊って笑ってるでしょう。
xxxx kubi o tsutte waratteru deshou.

xxxx will hang you and laugh, I think.

 

 

 

------

Those printed lyrics have no resemblance to what's actually sung. The latter part is included as narration at the end of the original version on NEW AGE CULTURE~第一楽章~, though.

*'4' in japanese can be read as 'shi'- 死 meaning 'death'
*操り人形 meaning marionette. For some reason the 'ri' is written with the kanji 綉 meaning 'embroidery' here.

*written 'monogatari' - 'story', sung 'higeki'-'tragedy'

 

 

This song originally released on the second NEW AGE CULTURE sampler was their comeback after the forced hiatus in 98 when Hizumi died.

It seems like Hisui tried to use every motif from his previous works here to express as much Madeth as possible.

This doesn't have lyrics printed in the booklet, so I translated it by ear. Bear in mind there can be mistakes~
Thanks to @Uglymouth for helping out!
 
 
makyou - 魔境 actually means "haunts of wicked men" but the second kanji was replaced with 鏡 - "mirror" here (as well as in the title of the album and this 'act'), making it a 'devils mirror'.  As we know by now hisui loves things reflected in mirrors

Yeah, you are right, now that you say it it's pretty clear. For some reason I kept fantasizing a  'ga' there and nothing made sense.

Will correct in a minute, thank you very much.  orz
