Bare-Rooted Country


Bare-Rooted Country ”
根 付 の国 」

Onigawara  鬼瓦 are a type of roof ornamentation
found in Japanese architecture.

His cheekbone is stuck out, the lips are thick, the eyes are triangular,
and the face appears bare-rooted as if being a sculpture by
Master Sangoro

 頬骨が出て、唇が厚くて、眼が三角で、
名人三五郎の彫った根付の様な顔をして


He gives blank stares as if the whole spirit has been removed
He is ignorant, and narrow-minded

魂をぬかれた様にぽかんとして
自分を知らない、こせこせした



His life is not much worthy
He plays the peacock

命のやすい
見栄坊な

 
He has no broad view, and puts on a grand air
He appears like a monkey, fox, momonga; or he looks retarded as a goby;
or looks small as a rice-fish; or he looks as a pug-ugly;
or looks like a broken piece of a teacup
- That is who Japanese are
  
小さく固まって、納まり返った
猿の様な、狐の様な、ももんがあの様な、
だぼはぜの様な
麦魚(めだか)の様な、鬼瓦のような、
茶碗のかけらの様な日本人

  

 
by Kōtarō Takamura
 March 13, 1883 – April 2, 1956
was a Japanese poet and sculptor.
高村 光太郎 (1910) 


Even though we look like these,
our heart really aren't that bad, and
of course our lives are much worthy.
So, we're just trying to stand tall and
face it all together at  our skyfall.

ダボハゼ って・・・ (゚-゚;)
― ダボとは播州から阪神で使われている アホ を強調した言葉 ―
そうおっしゃいますが 高村先生
日本人の心根は見かけほど悪いものではないと思いますよ。


Let the skyfall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
at skyfall


It looks like a broken piece of a teacup, doesn't it ?

茶碗のかけらの様なって
何を考えているのかさっぱりわからないような 無表情な顔つきだそうです。
 ほう~
