    [VERSE A]
    do mi sombo lo fusra je festi
    ve'a lo jesni zu
    .i lo tsiju cu fliba po kanro
    renvi ja banro ca'o ku
    .i mi cinmo po simsa lo smacu
    pinfu se vasru ca
    .i do curmi po taske ja xagji
    tau lo tabgapci po'o .ua
    [CHORUS A]
    .i cortu jonai pluka .au
    .i fanmo fa lo nu mi lifri li rau
    .i xu pau nai mi pante ba
    lo nu do sabji su'o da
    [VERSE B]
    .i mi bilga co katna lo jgena
    be lo mi dzena bai
    .i ba'o mipri lo fagri se cinmo
    .ui fo lo xinmo .oi .oinai
    [CHORUS B]
    .i damba jonai randa .ei
    .i mi se lanxe lonu slilu pamxei
    .i .uanai noda mansa do
    .i zukte ma po .e'i mo

    Dr. B.F. Skinner: [spoken]
    If a child is really not getting much reinforcement out of life,
    then a little parental or instructional approval would be enough to get the child going.
    But that should be withdrawn!
    You should break down the control exercised by another person,
    But there's no freedom involved in either case.
    He's not independent of the natural world:
    He has already come under the control of the physical environment...
    [CHORUS C]
    .i cnemu jonai sfasa .oi
    fi po mi dirba traji kenra do soi
    .i do re mi re do re si
    pu za’o zbasu .i do na se binxo mi
    noi do frica ki

    This is, to date, the most lyrical, free flowing lojban song I have heard(not that there are that many). I never realized how well the language can rhyme. Awesome job!

      @@NoiseAndBells Unfortunately I am not versed in lojban(too different from ordinary language + no time). Does the last sentence translate to: Believe it or not, lojban has amusingly infinite rhyming potential?

    I love your work! I gave up learning Lojban many years ago and was far from fluent even back then, how fluent are you in Lojban? Are these songs written carefully by looking things up in a Lojban dictionary, or can you write most of it based on knowledge?

    • @NoiseAndBells
      @NoiseAndBells  3 роки тому +16

      Hi there! At this point I'm fluent in text and moderately fluent in spoken conversation. Also, my songs are mostly created from my own knowledge of the language, though I sometimes have to double-check place structure and such. In any case, I'm so glad you enjoy my songs and I hope you get back into lojban someday

    having almost no knowledge of lojban, but a very bad understanding of it, i tried to decompose the first line:
    do mi sombo lo fusra je festi
    you (x1) | me (x2) | plants (gismu) | the rot/decay and (metaphor) waste (x3) |
    sombo is described as:
    (x1) sows/plants (x2) [crop/plants] at/in (x3) .
    so _do_ is the planter
    _mi_ gets planted
    _lo fusra_ and _je festi_ are where they get planted

    • @NoiseAndBells
      @NoiseAndBells  5 місяців тому +2

      Very close! {lo fusra je festi} is a single argument made from two predicates -- {fusra} "decay" and {festi} "waste" -- connected by the logical "and" operator, {je}.
      So, {lo fusra je festi} is "something which is both decay AND waste".

      Here you go! It's written specifically for tenor ukulele with low G, but I'm sure you could figure it out on guitar as well. Let me know if you have any trouble with any of the parts: pastebin.com/CeEUgs8v
