Someone known only to me as "Kitsune" is my new personal hero. He's translated the lyrics to all the songs in Katamari Damacy and posted them online. Very cool. Here's a sample from the one song everyone (who isn't totally lost at this point) is familiar with:
His original post is worth checking out for translation notes, which I've omitted here to keep the size of the post down.
Katamari on the Rock (the famous na-na-na song)
NAAAAAAAA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NANA-N'NA-NA-NA-NAAAAAA
Don't worry, do your best!
In a picnic-y mood, feel so good!
What a wonderful afternoon!
Off the limits insolence until midnight Yeah!
Ball it up and roll it around, I love you, always smile for you
You're my only Love Moon, so we've gotta hang in there!
Com-presssssion, com-presssSION!
With my uniformed T-shirt
Hand-knitted muffler and
And heart-warming dashing around
Playing in the sun! Say goodbye!
Everybody clump together and spurt it alllll out
On a day like this, we'll dance, we'll sing,
I'm the leader of the collective though
It's my waaaaaay, It's my waaaaaaay
NA-NAAAAAA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NAAAAA
The Katamari Damacy (Repeat 4x)
Drunk with a peaceful feeling
Looking up to the shining heavens
Ah, that head is so wonderful
Ah yeah, the party's getting all riled up now!
And as we do this, it's as if there's a big band staining you in color
Finding some kind of reason, I want this get this party started, so
Roll up and clump up!
NA-NAAAAAA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NAAAAA
The Katamari Damacy (Repeat 4x)
NA-NAAAAAA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NAAAAA
The Katamari Damacy (Repeat 4x)
Awesome!
