Nightmare before xxx

日本語

月が憎たらしく 笑うここは深い森
闇は夢を喰らい 一夜余興の幕が上がった

糸に吊るされた人形はグラリ
忍び寄る影に 身を任せ 墜ちて行く

次の遊びは何（なあに）?
私を喜ばせてよね
甘いお菓子でも 熱い紅茶でも
満足出来ない

足を捕われたら ここで少し休めば良い
おもてなしをしましょ 一夜余興を見せてあげましょ

人形が無いと 糸が寂しげに
くすぶっているの 新しい容器（はこ）は何処?

今宵の月は綺麗
貴方を歓迎してるわ
重たくちゃ駄目よ 軽いのも駄目よ
満足出来ない

糸を合わせたら 人形は叫び
体の奥まで 響かせて 昇ってく

次の遊びは何（なあに）?
私を喜ばせてよね
舞台の幕は上がり 私だけの余興になる
甘いお菓子でも 熱い紅茶でも
満足出来ない

Translation

The moon laughs awfully here in this deep forest.
The darkness consumed dreams and the curtains rose on the night’s entertainment.

The doll hung on strings shakes violently.
It surrenders itself to the encroaching shadows and falls.

What will we play next?
Delight me, won’t you?
Whether it’s sweet candy or hot tea,
I can’t be satisfied.

When your legs are caught, rest here for a little while.
I shall provide hospitality and show you tonight’s entertainment.

The string seems so lonely without its doll.
It’s secluded away. Where’s the new box?

The moon is beautiful tonight.
I will welcome you.
It can’t be too heavy or too light.
I can’t be satisfied.

When the strings come together, the doll screams.
It echoes inside my body and rises.

What will we play next?
Delight me, won’t you?
The curtain rises on this stage and becomes a show for only me.
Whether it’s sweet candy or hot tea,
I can’t be satisfied.
