しめやかに通夜終わり
にぎやかに埋葬始まる
祈る冥福 踊る喪服
調子はずれの笛太鼓
うしろめたい行列見下ろし
いまわしき鳥が叫ぶ
青い空と白い未亡人
生臭坊主がよだれを垂らす
鐘の音がいつまでも
いつまでも耳の奥に残る
泣く赤子 吠える犬
ほれほれ 猫が股なめる
墓地への細道
坊主が異教の呪文を唱え
そうして
こうして
誰かが誰かを埋葬す
Burial
After the wake of the night,
The burial begins lively.
Praying souls,
Dancing mourning clothes.
Out-of-tune flute drum.
A bird now looks down
At the guilty procession
And shouts.
Blue sky and white widow.
A fishy priest drools.
The sound of the bell remains
In my ears forever.
A crying baby, a barking dog.
See, the cat licks his crotch.
A shaven casts a pagan spell
On the path to the graveyard.
Then, in this way,
Someone burys someone.
