lyrics

Bannada tagadina tutturi, kaasige kondanu kasturi
Sarigama padanisa oodidanu, sanidapa magarisa oodidanu.

Tanage tutturi ide endu, berarigu adu illenda
Kasturi nadedanu beediyali, jambada koliya reetiyali.

tutturi ooduta kolada bali, nadedanu kasturi sanjeyali
Jaritu neerige tutturi, gantalu kattitu neeroori

Sarigama oodalu nodidanu, Ga, Ga, Ga, Ga saddanu maadidanu
Bannavu neerina paalaaitu, bannada tutturi bolaitu
Tutturi bannavu haalaaitu, jambhada kolige golaitu.

ಬಣ್ಣದ ತಗಡಿನ ತುತ್ತೂರಿ, ಕಾಸಿಗೆ ಕೊಂಡನು ಕಸ್ತೂರಿ
ಸರಿಗಮ ಪದನಿಸ ಊದಿದನು, ಸನಿದಪ ಮಗರಿಸ ಊದಿದನು.

ತನಗೇ ತುತ್ತೂರಿ ಇದೆ ಎಂದು, ಬೇರಾರಿಗೂ ಅದು ಇಲ್ಲೆಂದ
ಕಸ್ತೂರಿ ನಡೆದನು ಬೀದಿಯಲಿ, ಜಂಭದ ಕೋಳಿಯ ರೀತಿಯಲಿ.

ತುತ್ತೂರಿ ಊದುತ ಕೊಳದ ಬಳಿ, ನಡೆದನು ಕಸ್ತೂರಿ ಸಂಜೆಯಲಿ
ಜಾರಿತು ನೀರಿಗೆ ತುತ್ತೂರಿ, ಗಂಟಲು ಕಟ್ಟಿತು ನೀರೂರಿ

ಸರಿಗಮ ಊದಲು ನೋಡಿದನು, ಗ, ಗ, ಗ, ಗ ಸದ್ದನು ಮಾಡಿದನು
ಬಣ್ಣವು ನೀರಿನ ಪಾಲಾಯ್ತು, ಬಣ್ಣದ ತುತ್ತೂರಿ ಬೋಳಾಯ್ತು
ತುತ್ತೂರಿ ಬಣ್ಣವು ಹಾಳಾಯ್ತು, ಜಂಭದ ಕೋಳಿಗೆ ಗೋಳಾಯ್ತು.

A colourful expensive trumpet, Kasturi bought
he played on it, sarigamapadanisa and sanidapamagarisa

that he has this trumpet, and no other does
he walked in the streets, proud and arrogant

he walked by the lake, playing the trumpet
the trumpet slipped from his hands and fell to the water

he now tried to play on it, it made gargling sounds
the colours were lost to the water, the trumpet looked bare
the trumpet, now sheenless, the arrogant boy, now trumpetless

1曲目雨を思わせる背景音がムードを形成いいねっ。一番最初に聞いたときがまさに雨の夜に外に出ようというタイミングだった。あとでよく晴れた昼に聞いたとき、その雨の夜を思い出し、二重状態に…。シンプルに音楽の魔法を感じる。 8曲目歪んだサウンドとトボけたフレーズがゆるやかにpanしてディレイが昼でも夜でも酩酊千鳥足でいいねっ。 9曲目 yolatengoを思わせるトーンがいいねっ。yolatengo大好きなもんで…。 iwamoog
