Here and Heaven



ヨーヨーマ率いるGOAT RODEO
ちょっと哲学的な深みを持った世界なのかな、
韻のせいもあるのか、私には難解な詩。
移民たちで結成されている故か、
それぞれのルーツを孕んだ
音たちがボーダーレスに駆け回り、
じゃれ合って大地を吹き抜けていくよう。
GOAT RODEOの音楽には、不思議な心地よさがあります。

今日は、お墓参りへ。
北鎌倉から歩いて建長寺前の菩提寺へ、
お参りして、いつものミョウガのお裾分けをいただき、また歩いて鎌倉へ。
途中、老舗店の閉店をいくつか知ることに。
時間が流れていたのを感じました。

Here and Heaven
With a hammer and nails and a fear of failure
we are building a shed
Between here and heaven between the wait and the wedding
for as long as we both shall be dead
to the world beyond the boys and the girls trying
to keep us calm
We can practice our lines 'til we're deaf and blind
to ourselves to each other where it's
Fall not winter spring not summer cool not cold
And it's warm not hot have we all forgotten that
we're getting old
With an arrow and bow and some seeds left to sow
we are staking our claim
On ground so fertile we forget who we've hurt along
the way and reach out for a strange hand
to hold someone strong but not bold enough to
tear down the wall
'Cause we're not lost enough to find the stars aren't
crossed why align them why fall hard not soft into
Fall not winter spring not summer cool not cold
And it's warm not hot have we all forgotten that
we're getting old

オオカミの絵本制作中に、

日本の狼バンド、MAN WITH MISSION聴いてみる。

こんな瀟洒で暖かい曲もあります。

 colours

dark red The colour of your blood drawing the wrist
cobalt blue The colour of the sky holding it all
pale purple Umbrella, you keep from me trembling
true orange Everything coloured by the setting sun
chrome yellow You said to me it calls us happiness
moss green The hills of our town which kept us there
scarlet The colour of the children's cheek you loved
snow white It covered every sorrows among us
Colourful world we had been everywhere we're standing
Coloruful world we had lost everything
But you were standing, you were breathing just there
Under that each colours
Every light on the street had meaning of each story
Everyone believed in life day by day
But we would start it, we must start again ourselves
Put on the new colours again
light blond You showed me your calm hair proudly
bright gold The picture frame you always smile at me
silver The carved spoon we bought to start our life
dull grey I dyed all in all after you have gone
transparent The heart of the baby born today
flesh colour Seeing my hand grasped tightly
all black The colour of beginning of new days
deep brown Walking this land we have to go forward
Colourful world we had been everywhere we're standing
Colourful world we had lost everything
But you were standing, you were breathing just there
Under that each colours
Every light on the street had meaning of each story
Everyone believed in life day by day
But we would start it, we must start again ourselves
Go on the road
good bye
