 お二方の名訳を拝見して、僕のとんでも意見(99%ハズレです)を。  東京にベルサイユを模した赤坂離宮があります。あの建物の初めには便所がなかったとか、ということはフランスの王様は便所を使わなかったことになるかも知れません。  ですと生きた動物の常としていろんなものが排出され、それが便所を使わずに処理されたことになり、dipper 汲み取り係という排泄物処理班の女性が七人いた、ということではないか。  brown は、下記にあるように brownnoser というのは、お偉い方の肛門を舐める(=お世辞を言う)と鼻が brown になるところから来ており、大便の色ではないか。  https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/brown-nose 月がかかっているのは、月は lunatic のように気が狂う原因とされていましたから、harvest moon は満月で、100%基地外という意味ではないか。  それが the left shoulder の上、すなわち「疑わしい」となると、頭が全然狂っている「かもしれない」というシャレではないか。 https://www.thefreedictionary.com/Over+the+left+shoulder  まあこんなことを継ぎ合わせると、腰は息ができないほど締め付けて細くその下は落下傘のように開く半球形の骨組みをつけた女王様も便所には行けない。フランス式おまるを使う。  してみると、これは頭は薄馬鹿で、身の回りの用はお付きのものがやってくれ、お世辞タラタラの家来に囲まれ、お笑い番組は足元の道化にやらせる王様の姿を描いたものではないでしょうか。  で、そんな身の上でも、我々小便横丁の庶民にも「死」は平等にやってくる、(ああ匂いがお嫌ならフランス香水はその副産物)ということを思い出させるもの、  これが、本当にヴィヨンの作品なら、全人口の1桁パーセントが全国の金の90%以上を占め、あとは貧民という21世紀の某国の不均衡にも似て、今でも通じる 詩ですね。

どうもご回答ありがとうございます。 SPSさんご自身も「99%ハズレ」だとおっしゃっていますが、私も「こりゃ何通りもの、解釈が可能そうだ。」と段々気づいて参りました。 やっぱり、この箇所はノストラダム並みに行く通りにも解釈ができる箇所なんでしょうね。 しかし、、、、ここまで、、、理解した上でなお、、『今回の解釈が一番腑に落ちました。』 >>東京にベルサイユを模した赤坂離宮があります。あの建物の初めには便所がなかったとか、~、 dipper 汲み取り係という排泄物処理班の女性が 突然空の北斗七星が出てくるよりも、こちらの方が断然納得できます。そもそも王冠に七つの星の装飾があるので、おヘソにあるのもまた星に違いないと、私は考えてしまったのですが、「ひしゃく」のほうが断線あり得ますね。その係が女性だったのならば、他の方の訳で、メイドとなっていたのも一応つじつまがあいます。 >>brown になるところから来ており、大便の色ではないか。 これも、ありえそうですね。そして、そこが怖いところですね。 まあ、実際の王侯貴族の事は知らないのですが、酒池肉林のもととなった古代中国の王様のように権力者はなにするか分かりませんからね。 >>月がかかっているのは、月は lunatic のように気が狂う原因とされていましたから、harvest moon は満月で、100%基地外という意味ではないか。 そういえば、西洋ではそんな迷信がありましたね。忘れていました。満月はlunatic、三日月はイスラム教徒とか、そういえば、そういう解釈がありましたね。 さすがお詳しい! >>それが the left shoulder の上、すなわち「疑わしい」となると、 このイデオム知りませんでした。さすがにお詳しいですね。 >>してみると、これは頭は薄馬鹿で、身の回りの用はお付きのものがやってくれ、お世辞タラタラの家来に囲まれ、お笑い番組は足元の道化にやらせる王様の姿を描いたものではないでしょうか。 そうとも解釈できますね。昔の王様と言うと本当に何にもしなかったイメージがありますので、より一層「これだったかもな~!」と思えてきますね。昔はテレビもネットもないので、道化を雇っていたんですよね。(シェークスピアだったかな、どっかの古典でも道化が出てきたのを思い出しました。) >>これが、本当にヴィヨンの作品なら、全人口の1桁パーセントが全国の金の90%以上を占め、あとは貧民という21世紀の某国の不均衡にも似て、今でも通じる 詩ですね。 そういう悲しい現実がありますね。 それでも古代や中世に比べたらずいぶんと人権がある生活を送れていますけどね。(一応ヴィヨンの作の翻訳ですが、二重翻訳なので、もしかしたら原作と多少ずれている可能性は、あります。) それにしても、brownとDipperが妙にしっくりときますね。 また、質問したいヴィヨンの詩はあるのですが、ちょっと最近体調がよくなくて、また調子のいい日に質問します。 今回もありがとうございました。 また、よろしくお願い致します。

    When asked about his upcoming solo record, Weiland said “This record is going to be different. There's a dub feel to it, like Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry kind of, in the way that The Clash kind of used it. … But then there's also this thing we touched on that's like, it's like the ’60s groove pop thing that sounds really kind of underground, but it's ultra-melodic.”

    輪郭の特徴などが書いてあるのですが、よくわからないので翻訳できる方宜しくお願いします。 There is a slight hollow in the side of the cheek below the ear and cheek bone, but it does not extend into the face far enough to cause him to have hollow or sunken cavernous cheeks, it is just a faint depression near the ear or outer edge of the face. He has a straight thin nose, the eyebrows coming close to the edge of the narrow bridge. The nose is pointed and drawn in, with a rounded tip and a shallow curve or convexity in its shape in the middle of the shaft which you can only notice from the side. Its a high set nose, not quite upturned but the sort where you can see the nostrils, when his head is straight. The tip of the nose is slightly more prawn pink, or warmer toned than his general skin shade. There may be a dent or depression in the bridge in later years. The nose is straight not favoring the left or right side of the face, but straight down the middle Like the handle of a spoon.

    以下の英文を翻訳お願いしたいです。 His body movements are always angular, just a little stiff, or restrained looking. He makes very few gestures, but jerks the hands the head, the arms when he makes a gesture, always angular motion. There is no excess nervous energy or unnecessary movements. He doesn’t see fit to fidget, When he remains still for example, he is absolutely statuesquely. Not a languid wilting stillness. More a poised placid and dramatic strong stillness,. His postures are often effectuated or like one acting a part in a play. He likes to sit on the edge of his chair and lean or bend forwards, his arms on his knees when paying attention. Though when he relaxes he slumps back and downward in his seat, yet even his slump looks effectuated, dramatic, and a kind of glazed trance like look sinks over him like a blanket and he becomes lost in a haze of thought. A kind of beatitude passers over him, and he seems as if to have two existences, conscious of two states.

    His skill is unbelievable. There were several moments throughout their set when he would come to the front of the stage and bang away guitar solos – smooth, gyrating, electric, psych numbers. It was reminiscent of another era. The ‘60s, maybe. Most of the show felt like a window in time to what our parents had watched. But it’s his mind that really makes him. Intelligent, well versed on a variety of topics and with the ability to communicate powerfully on very delicate subjects, he has a command and a bluntness that is refreshing. Drummer Fernando, who himself looks like Bob Dylan—tallish, wiry, remote, with curly brown hair that sticks up everywhere—his arrival marked a transition for TLI. “The band was really re-born,” Edgey says. “That’s when we really tightened up as musicians.” Sweet, and more quiet than the other two, “he won’t say anything,” Delila warned before the interview had started.

    A lonely, old fisherman sets out daily in his small boat to fish in the Gulf Stream off Cuba. He has gone 84 days without catching anything. Around noon, his fishing line is tugged in his hand. The weight of the fish is incredible. The huge fish dives deep, and pulls the boat further and further from land. The old fisherman begins to talk to the fish he cannot see. " I really like you. I respect you. " The fish keeps swimming deep in the water. On the second day since hooking the fish, the old fisherman eats his fill of raw tuna. Suddenly, in front of the boat, the fish surfaces. It has a long, pointed upper jaw...it's a gigantic marlin. " This fish is my friend. But I must kill it. " The old man's happiness is to kill the fish that has become as close as a brother to him. On the third day, the sun rises. The old man is practically dizzy with exhaustion. With his remaining strength, he harpoons the fish, which seems to weigh more than 1500 pounds. He ropes the dead fish to the side of his small boat, and begins his trip home. Sharks attack his fish all along the route home. At last, he manages to get back to port that night. Nothing remains of the gigantic marlin but the skeleton and tail. So runs the story of Ernest Hemingway's (1899-1961) classic tale, The Old Man and The Sea.
