Völlerei

「罪を祀る歪な祭壇。
神に捧げられた屍。
君は何故、この境界を越えてしまったのか。
さぁ、唄ってごらん…」

幽かな記憶の　糸を手繰るように
仄昏　い森へ　足を踏み入れた

幼い記憶の　途を辿るように
入り組んだ森の　奥へと進んだ

小川を渡り　お化け樅の木を左へと
そこに佇む　私の生家

物心ついた時には、既に父の消息は不明で、
私と母は何時も二人、とても貧しい暮らしだった。
井戸に毒を入れた等と、謂われなき罪で虐げられる事も多く、
私にとって友達と言えるのは、森の動物達だけだった……。

それでも　嗚呼　ねぇ　お母さんMutti　私は幸せだったよ
その理由を　ねぇ　知ってた？　貴女が一緒だったから

それなのに　何故　母は　私を捨てたのか？
どうしても　それが　知りたくて……

小さな私を拾ってくれたのは　大きな街にある修道院だった
けれど　激しく吹き荒れた改革の嵐と
新教徒達の手によって　嗚呼　無惨にも破壊された

人生は数奇のもの　運命は判らないから
ひとつの終わりは　新しい始まりと信じて　勇気を持って
積年の疑問を　解く為に　故郷を探す　旅を始めた

小川を渡り　お化け樅の木を左へと
そこに佇む　私の生家

私の来訪を待っていたのは、石のように歳を取った老婆で、
まるで見知らぬその女性が、母であるとは俄には信じ難く、
娘わたしであると気付く事もなく、唯、食料を貪る母の瞳は、
既に正気を失っているように思えた。

そして･･･

改宗したけれど時は既に遅く、
一人の食い扶持さえもう侭ならなかった。
懺悔を嗤う逆十字。
祈りは届かない。
赦しも得られぬまま、罪だけが増えてゆく……。

「なるほど、それで君は祀られてしまった訳だね？不本意ながら。
少々時間は掛かるが、子供のうらみは子供が晴らすものさ。
宜しいかな？
さぁ、復讐劇を始めようか…」

森に置き去りにされた　可哀想な兄妹子供たち
捨てられた子の　悲しい気持ちは　痛いほど解るわ

ああ　鳥達を操り　パン屑の道標を消し
真雪のように　真っ白な鳥に　歌わせて誘った

「見て、【Hänsel】お兄ちゃん。ほら、あそこに家があるわ！」
「でも、【Gretel】それは、怖い魔女の家かも知れない……けど」
「けど？」
「腹ぺこで……死ぬよりましさ！」「死ぬよりましね！」

「誰かいませんか？」

「おやまぁ、可愛いお客様だこと。腹が減ってるのかい？さぁ、中へお入り」

「屋根は焼き菓子Lebkuchen。窓は白砂糖。
お菓子の美味しい家を、栫えてあげようかねぇ！」

嗚呼　遠慮はいらないよ
子供に腹一杯食べさせるのが　私のささやかな夢だった
嗚呼　金貸しだった夫は　生きては帰らなかったけど
幾許かの遺産を託けてくれていた……

老婆の好意に　無償の行為に　甘えた兄妹二人は　食べ続けた
少女はある日　丸々太った　少年を見て　怖くなった

「嗚呼、老婆は魔女で、二人を食べちゃう心算なんだわ！」

殺られる前に　殺らなきゃ　ヤ・バ・イ！
背中を　ドン！　と　蹴飛ばせ！

「森に住む孤独な老婆は、全て魔女なんだそうだよ」

「モウ、子供ナンテ図々シクテ嘘吐キデ、私ハ大嫌イ。アハハハハ！」

Gluttony

[Vollerei]

“A twisted altar dedicated to sin.
A corpse offered to god.
Why did you cross this border?
Come, try to sing.”

As if pulling in the threads of my faint memories
I step into the dark, gloomy forest

As if tracing the paths of my childhood memories
I marched into the depths of the forest I entered

Crossing the river, going left at the ghostly fir
And there stood the place of my birth

“Ever since I can remember, my father’s whereabouts were unknown,
And I lived a humble life with my mother.
I was often blamed groundlessly and bullied for things like putting poison into the well,
The only friends that I could speak of were the animals in the forest...”
(“Get out! Get out!” “Witch! Witch!” “You’re disgusting!” “Don’t follow us!”)

But still...ah...mother...I was happy...
Did...you know...why? Because you were with me

So why did my mother abandon me?
I wanted to know that no matter what...

A monastery in a big city took me in when I was young
But because of the violent storms of Reformation
And the new believers, ah, it was destroyed mercilessly
(“We’re gonna drive out the fallen clergy!”
“Destroy their altar! True faith is in our hands!”
“Stop it! Please stop it!”)

Life has its ups and downs, and since I cannot grasp the workings of fate
I believed that one end leads to another beginning; working up my courage
I began my trip in search for my homeland, to seek the answer for my longstanding question

Crossing the river, going left at the ghostly fir
And there stood the place of my birth

“What awaited me was a stone-like old woman,
(“I’m home, mother...eh!?” “Oh, you’re the one sent by our Lord Jesus. Thank you for coming.”)
I could hardly believe that this stranger could be my mother.
(“It’s stale bread, but did it match your tastes?” “I can eat this forever!”)
I saw no light of recognition in her eyes, and looking at her, desperate for food,
(“Madam, do you not know who I am?” “What are you babbling about...”)
I thought that she’d already lost her mind.
(“Are you discriminating against me too? Give me more, give me more food!”)
And...
(“Noooooo!”)

I converted, but it was too late
It became impossible to secure food for even one person.
An inverted cross that makes a mockery of repentance.
My prayers don’t reach.
Without gaining forgiveness, sins merely increase in number...

“I see...
So that’s how you were sacrificed? Against your will, to boot...
This might take some time, but a child’s grudge should be avenged by a child.
Is that alright?
Now, let the revenge tragedy begin.”

Poor siblings[children] who were abandoned in the forest
I understand the sad feelings of abandoned children, painfully so

Ah, controlling the birds, I made the trail of breadcrumbs disappear
(“The breadcrumbs are...getting eaten!”)
I had the birds, white as snow, sing in invitation
(“Ah! Hey, brother, that’s an interesting bird!”
“You’re right. Let’s try chasing it!”)

“Look, Hänsel, big brother. There’s a house over there!”
“But Gretel, that might be a scary witch’s house...still.”
“Still?”
“Better than...dying with an empty stomach!”

“Is anyone here?”
“Oh my, what cute guests. Are you hungry? Come on in.”

“The roof is made out of lebkuchen, the windows are of sugar.
I’ll give you this delicious house made from sweets!”

Ah, you don’t need to hold back
Letting kids eat as much as they wanted has always been my small dream
Ah, my loan shark husband didn’t come back alive
But he left me with some inheritance...

The siblings[two] took advantage of the old woman’s kindness; her selfless actions, and ate
(“This is delicious! Gretel, you have some too!” “Yeah, it’s delicious, brother!”)
One day, the girl looked at the boy who’d become round and grew afraid
(“Delicious!” “B-brother?” “Delicious! Gretel, if you’re not going to eat, let me have your portion!”)

“Ah! The old woman is a witch, and she’s going to eat us!”

It’d be B-A-D if we don’t kill her before she kills us!
Kick her HARD! In the back!

“You won’t be able to eat us.”
“You’re great, Gretel! Now the witch’s finished!”
“We have to let Thomas know as well.”
“Yep, the evil witch was burnt, and now all treasure”
“Belongs to us!”

“Hey Tom-“
“Tom-“
“Hey there Hans! How did you get so fat?”
“Tada!”
“Woah! We really got lucky!”

“So every old woman who lives in the forest alone are witches.”
“Geez, children are such cold-hearted liars. I hate them. Ahahahaha!”
