[drama cd translation]

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

Long-time lurker, first time poster, the name's Vava! :D

Anyways WOW okay so I just spent like my entire evening translating this with MUCH vocabulary help from Japanese native robo_subaru .  It's the translation (and romanization) of the first track of the Hetalia drama CD.  I thought it would be pretty cool for those who can't speak Japanese! I sure learned a lot of useless Japanese words.

It was actually very difficult for us to tell who's who in a certain part of the track, so if you see anything that you absolutely know is WRONG WRONG WRONG, please do tell. XD We mostly had troubles telling Austria and Japan's voices apart, I think.

I know some things aren't exact translations, but I tried to make them sound less awkward in English.

Enjoy!



Narrator: MEETING OF THE WORLD 1.  Koko wa boukoku kokkaigijidou, kaigishitsu.
"Meeting of the world, 1.  This is the certain countries' National Parliament Building's Meeting Room."

Germany: Omaera, seishuku ni shi....
"You guys, please be quie--"

America: Yoshi! Korekara sekai kaigi wo hajimeru zo! Sekai no mondai wa oretachi de kaiketsu shite ikou ja nai ka?
"The world meeting is starting now~!  Shall we solve the problems of the world?"

Germany: "Oi!"
"Hey!"

America: Mina mo shitte no toori, gichou wa mochiron, sekai no HERO Amerika da zo!  Soshite HERO to ieba, kotoshi koukai no, ore ga tsukutta HOLLYWOOD eiga "fgdsgdf!!!" sekai issei koukai da zo! Iya~, kore ga zen ore ga goukyuu suru daikessaku.  Midokoro wa, shujinkou no kanojo JENNY ga BULLDOZER 5dai wo hineri tsubusu SCENE de..
"As everyone knows, the chairman is, of course, the world hero AMERICA!! Speaking of "HERO", the Hollywood movie titled "fdsgdf!!!" that I made this year will be released at the same time ALL OVER THE WORLD! Awww, this is the masterpiece that EVERYONE--or maybe, just me--cried at!  The highlight of the movie is the scene where the protagonist's girlfriend Jenny crushed 5 bulldozers with her hand...."

UK: Ii kara hayaku yare.  Baka.
"Hurry up and get on with it already, idiot."

America: OKAY!! Sore jaa sekai kaigi, ima kara hajimeyou ka!
"OKAY!! So, starting now, let's get on with the world meeting, shall we?"

America: Yoshi yoshi yoshi, sore jaa mazu wa ore kara iku zo.  Kyou no wadai wa, chikyuu ondanka no kaiketsusaku ni tsuite.  Kinou ore ga nenaide kangaeta no wa....yoishotto, kyodai Amerikanrobo, JENNY wo uchuu ni hasshin sasete, chikyuu wo mamoreba ii to omounda.  A, mochiron seisakuhi wa warikan da zo!
"Alright alright alright, so let's start with me first.  Today's topic is about the solution to global warming.  The thing I thought deeply about yesterday without sleep is this..**puts a model or something on the table**...I think it would be nice to save the earth by launching huge American robot 'Jenny' into space.  Oh, of course we can split the bill!"

UK: Amerikan tte tsuiteru no ni warikan sasenna!  Daitai, ahosugiru daro, sono an wa.
"Don't force us to split the bill after sticking an American name on it!  And that idea is too stupid!"

America: Eee! Damattete kure yo Igirisu~. Kono ato kono Jenny no sugoi kinou no setsumei suru'n dakara sa! Nanto, koko ni wa ICE CREAM seizouki ga tsuitete, soshite koko ni wa maku*narudo daro.  A, ato koko ni Rosia sei no toire ga hitotsu tsuiteru yo!
"Whaat! Be quiet, UK~. Because I'll explain this here Jenny's amazing function after this!  And look at this, an ice cream maker is attached to Jenny, and inside here is McDon*lds! Oh, and in here there's also a toilet made in Russia!"

UK: Fuon bunshi tsukeru na.  Mou ii kara omae wa damattero.  Hoka ni iken wa nai no ka~?
"Don't add dangerous elements.  Geez, would you shut up already? Are there any other opinions~?"

Japan: A....a, un.....sore wa chotto....a...ie, watashi wa Amerika-san to onaji de ii desu.
"Uh...oh, um.....that's a little.....uh--no, I agree with America."

UK: Oi, Nihon.  Tama ni wa jibun no iken itte mo ii'n da zo.  Toku ni, koitsu toka, koitsu to ka ni wa.
"Hey, Japan.  Sometimes it's okay to voice your own opinion.  Especially to a guy like this. A guy like this!"

America: E, sore tte, ore no iken kai? Konna ni subarashii no ni, nande dai?
"Eh, are you talking about my idea?  Why, even though it's so wonderful like this?"

UK: Doko ni subarashisa wo kanjiru'nda yo!  Sonna genjitsumi no nai aho na an, sansei dekiru ka!
"Where is this wonderfulness that you're feeling?! Can you really agree with such an unrealistic and stupid idea?!"

France: Haa, jyaa ore Furansu wa, Amerika to Igirisu ni hantai tte koto de..
"*sigh* Well I, France, disagree with America and UK..."

UK: Docchi da yo! Mattaku.
"Which one?! Geez."

America: Igirisu to Furansu wa ore no iken ni hantai suru no ga shumi na no kai? Motto tanoshii shumi mitsuketara dou dai?
"UK and France, is disagreeing with my ideas a hobby of yours? How about finding a more fun hobby?"

France: Datte naa, omaera to onaji iken nante SENSE warui shi naa.  Ore Furansu wa, omaera to chigatte shinshiteki nanda yo.
"Because, you know, my sense is that it's lame to have the same opinions as you guys.  I, France, differ with you two because I am gentlemanly."

UK: SENSE ga dou to ka de juuyou na koto kimenna kono wain-yarou!  Ittsumo ittsumo NECKTIE no gara baka ni shiyagatte!  Soko ni suware.   Kyou koso omae no sono hige, zenbu nuite yaru.
"Don't decide important things because of your 'sense' or something, you wine bastard!  You're always, ALWAYS making fun of the pattern of my  NECKTIE!! Sit down over there. At last, today, I'll pull that whole beard of yours off.."

France: Noon? Kuru kai? Oniisan ukete tatsu yo?
"No-on? You coming or what? Are you ready to fight with oniisan~?"

Japan: Aa, ofutaritomo ochitsuite kudasai.  Rosia-san mo nanika itte kudasai yo.  Ato, iroiro kaeshite kudasai.
"Oh, please calm down, you two.  Russia-san, please say something too.  (Also, give me back some things.)*

Russia: N? E? Boku? Boku wa, Ritoania ga komatte komatte naite konran suru sugata ga mitai na.  Ne, Ritoania?
"Hm? Eh? Me? As for me, I want to see Lithuania in really really big trouble and crying and confused.  Right, Lithuania?"

Lithuania: E, ahaha, nani itteru'n desu ka Rosia-san. Hahhahaha...(Mou kono hito no tonari, yada...)
"Um, ahaha, what are you trying to say, Russia-san? Hahaha..ha..(I don't want to be next to this person anymore...)

Germany: Omaera damare! Mondai wo kaiketsu suru tame no kaigi de, sara ni mondai wo fuyashite dou suru!
"SHUT UP YOU GUYS! It's a meeting for the purpose of solving problems,  so why are you making more problems?!"

UK: Na, Do, Doitsu...sou da na, jibun wo miushinatteita you da.  Suman.
"Hey, G..Germany...you're right, I've lost myself.  Sorry."

Germany: Ha, wakattekurereba sore de ii'nda.
"Yeah, if you understand that it's okay."

France: Zenbu koitsu no sei desu.
"It's all this guy's fault."

UK: Aa!! Nani tsumi nasuri tsuketeru'nda korraa!!
"Ah!! Why are you shifting the fault to me?! Hey!!"

France: Datte omae ga iru to kaigi nagabiku daro.
"Because you're making the meeting drag on."

UK: ....suimasen.
"....sorry."

Germany: Yoshi, mina ochitsuita tokoro de shikirinaosou.
"Alright, after everybody calms down, let's restart."

Germany: Iken shitai yatsu wa mazu meikaku na DATA wo teiji shiro.  Hanashi wa sore kara da.  Hitori mochi jikan wa 8ppun genshuu.  Jikangire mo shigo mo mitomen!  Saa, saisho ni hatsugen suru yatsu wa, kakugo wo kimete kara te wo ageru you ni.
"People who want to give an idea, first show us your specific data.  We'll discuss it after that.  Each person must keep their time under 8 minutes.  Going over the alotted time and saying unnecessary things will not be allowed!  Now then, first, people who want to make a statement, prepare ahead of time and raise your hand."

Austria: Doitsu, jyouho shisugi desu yo.
"Germany, you compromised a lot."

(?)France: Koredemo jouho shitenno ka?
"THIS is compromising?"

UK: Oubou da zo Doitsu!
"That's overbearing of you, Germany!"

Germany: Ii wasureta ga, igi mo mitomen!  Yoshi, dewa Oosutoria, omae wa nanika iken aru ka?
"I forgot to say...no objections! Alright, so, Austria, what is your idea?"

Austria: Sou, desu ne...koko ni ookina piano ga areba ii to omoundesu ga.  Dekireba CONCERT GRAND, dakyou shite PARLOR GRAND desu ne.  Ima, mouretsu ni Ainekurainenahatomujiiku wo kanadetai kibun desu no de.
"Indeed....I think it would be nice if there were a big piano here.  If possible a Concert Grand, but if not then a Parlor Grand will do.  Because right now I'm in the mood to play truly classical Eine Kleine Nachtmusik."

Germany: Jitsu ni subarashii.
"Truly incredible."

France: DATA mo nakereba, zenbu shigo da na.
"There's no 'data', it's all rambling..."

Austria: Odamarinasai! Obaka-san ga.  Ii deshou.  Kyou wa tetsuya de, MOZART seitan kara Uiin de no seikou made, jikkuri kikasete agemashou.
"Please be quiet!  You fool.  Fine...today, all night, I'm going to tell you the story of Mozart from his birth to his success in Vienna~."

France: Sumanai naa. Kyou wa itoshi no ano ko to no yakusoku ga haitteru'n de ne.
"Sorry, but....today, I promised to meet that beloved girl, you know..."

Germany: Yoshi, tsugi!
"Okay, next!"

UK: O, oi, Amerika.  Omae, sakki made isei yokattandakara, ichiban te ike yo
"H-hey, America. Just a minute ago you were so spirited, so go ahead and lead the conversation!"

America: N~, hoka no kuni ni shikirareru to, yaruki nakunacchau'nda yo naa.  Igirisu wa doudai?
"Mmn, when led by other countries, my desire to do anything disappears, y'knoow.  How about you, UK?"

UK: Na, nande ore ni furu'nda yo! So, sou da, Roshia wa?
"W..why do I have to speak?! Oh..yes..how about Russia?"

Russia: N? Hayaku te wo agenayo, Ritoania.  Eikou no ichibante, hoka no hito ni torarechauyo?
"Hm? Hurry up and raise your hand, Lithuania.  Otherwise won't another person take the honorable role of the leader of the conversation?"

Lithuania: Iyaa, ore wa toku ni iken nai'nde, ii desu kara.
"Nooo, I don't particularly have any ideas, it's okay..."

Russia: Sonna yowaki jya dame da yo.  Jibun wo kaenakya.  Kokusaikashakai wo norikitte ikenai yo? Ne, Nihon?
"That kind of weakness is bad...you should change yourself.  You won't be able to overcome internationalization! Right, Japan?"

Japan: Watashi wa NO COMMENT de.
"I have no comment."

France: N, chotto matte yo.  Ato hitori, kono kaigi ni sanka shite iru yatsu ga, iru'n jya nakatta ka?
"Mm, wait a sec.  Isn't there one more person who has to contribute to this meeting?"

Japan: Aa, asoko de, yume no kuni ni tabidatteru kata desu ne.
"Yeah, over there, the guy going to a country in his dreams..."

Austria: Ee, zannen na koto ni
"Yes, it is a shame.."

France: Nande anna doudou to sabotteru no ni, Doitsu wa chuui shinai no yo?
"Why is Germany not worrying about this guy, who is showing off the fact that he's not doing what he's supposed to do?"

Austria: Saji wo nageteiru'n desu.
"He gave up on him."

UK: Uun. Demo koko wa aitsu ni yarakashite morau shika nai. Oi! Oi, Itaria!
"Uuh, but now we've gotta let that guy do something.  Hey! Hey, Italy!"

Italy: A? A, nani nani?
"Ah? Ah, what what?"

UK: Nani nani jya nai! Te wo agete nandemo ii kara hatsugen shiro tte sa!
"Don't say 'what what'!  I said to raise your hand and say something already!"

Italy: E? Sou nanda. Wakatta, Igirisu.
"Oh? Is that so.  Got it, UK!"

Italy: Haiha~i, ore, shaberu yo~.
"Okay, okay~. I'm going to speak~."

Germany: Fun. Omae ka...dewa, hatsugen wo kyoka suru.  Itaria!
"Hmph. You...well then, I'll allow you to speak. Italy!"

Italy: Un. Etto, PASUTAA! ...ga, tabetai desu!
"Okay. Um......PASTA!!!....I want to eat it."

UK: Omae...kono aida mo aisu ga tabetai tte sawaideta yo na.
"You.....last time you shouted that you wanted ICE CREAM!"


All: Hetalia!



Translator's Notes:
-We have no idea what the name of America's amazing blockbuster movie is called.  We tried, we tried. ._.

-Japan's "Also, give me back some things" is probably in reference to Sakhalin Island, an island just north of Hokkaidou that Russia and Japan are constantly bickering over. Whose is it?!

-The joke about America being the only one who cried at the movie had to be changed a little bit for it to make sense in English. Sorry.

-Is that French or something? "Noo-on"? WHY YES IT IS!

Haha, entertainment at its finest.

Edit: SUDDEN REALIZATION WOAH.  This drama cd...is modern! They're talking about global warming and Sakhalin Island and worldwide simultaneous movie release...and they're not separated by powers! Call me a dork for not noticing this 'til now. XDDD

"Paaraa Grand" is a Parlor Grand. Oh Austria. You and your pianos <3

YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME FOR TRANSLATING THIS, THANK YOU SO MUCH <3<3<3

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

THANKS! Fixed. XD You wouldn't believe how long it took me to understand that mesh of syllables was EINE KLEINE NACHTMUSIK, too. XDD

Funny because he had no previous knowledge of Hetalia. XD He just wanted to practice his English and I wanted to practice my Japanese, so WHY NOT INVOLVE APH? ;D

[fujiappletan.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much for translating this~ will you be doing the other tracks?
I love UK. His "sorry" I was like awwww.
Russia was really scary. I feel bad for Lithuania. Ohhh, and Germany is pretty cool. "No objections!" haha.

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

I doubt it since that took--with his limited English and my limited Japanese--about six hours. XDDD But maybe someday!

YEAH I didn't realize the first time I listened through this that Russia's lines were so creepy.

[hoshika.livejournal.com]

THANKS FOR THE TRANSLATION! <3 <3

This was lovely! lol

Jenny the robot. lulz

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

SHE CAN CRUSH FIVE BULLLDOZERS.

[ki75un3.livejournal.com]

thanks for translating~!

that was so cute, oh Russia XD

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

Russia's gotta stop being so cute, seriously. XD

And you're welcome~.

[callalady.livejournal.com]

LOL! Very awesome! Thanks for the translation.

Non is no in french

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

That's what we thought at first but I guess my translation partner (who's studying French) was picky about the pronunciation. FRANCE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO PRONOUNCE HIS OWN LANGUAGE. What a dork.

Anyways, you're welcome~!

[piratelicker.livejournal.com]

thanks for the translations ;)

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

You're welcome!

[bolshevists.livejournal.com]

Thanks a lot for translating it! Will the other parts be translated too~?

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

We'll try our best! It takes a really long time to do, but it's good practice for his English and my Japanese. XD Thanks for reading!

[mikaii.livejournal.com]

WAaah~ thank you so much for translating this!!
It was really fun reading romanji and english back and forth ^^
Their Japanese speech pattern is pretty interesting... Lol. It helps portraying their character more- XD;; I think my favorites were UK, Japan and Lithuania~

Japan's last line "Watashi wa NO COMMENT de."... XD;; so cute!

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

Yes, I usually put the romaji when I try to translate something because I think it's really important to be able to see their speech patterns. Most of those patterns can never be carried into English properly. XD;

Thanks for reading~.

[andziela.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much for this!

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

You're welcome!

[izelmecatl.livejournal.com]

lol thank you very much for all the hard work and time

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

Don't mention it! <3 There's probably more to come.

[daftest.livejournal.com]

Oh, this is delicious. Thank you for translating! I really liked the format you set it up in too.

I hope I'm not the only who thought of XJ-9 of My Life as a Teenage Robot when America mentions Jenny. xD;;

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

HAHA no I totally was thinking of her too. And I didn't even realize that was weird til now. It was just the automatic image I got in my head and I was like "oh okay that's normal" but WAIT NO IT'S NOT. XDD

THANKS. If we do any more of these--which actually, we're starting to think we should, if just for the language practice--they'll be in the same format~.

[picnicbird.livejournal.com]

Wow, that you also transcribed it is so cool. Really, it's invaluable. :D Thanks so much!

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

You're welcome~! It was fun.

ALSO I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SOUND LIKE A STALKER WHEN I SAY THAT I KNOW YOU FROM ARI'S FLIST AND REBORN FANDOM LOL. Cool to see you're in this whole Hetalia business too. XDD

[starshards.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! *__*

Arthur's tsundere makes my heart break. XD!!!!!
And I never knew that what Russia was saying to Lithuania was so weird but then, why am I surprised?

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

Haha, I know, I didn't notice the first time around either. Russia's so cute.

You're welcome~.

[chinomi.livejournal.com]

YOU ARE A GOD.
I am so, so, so happy right now.

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

WOAH, A GOD. ER, I DON'T DESERVE IT, BUT THANKS.

Actually you get the god title for having that icon fdsgds. XDDD

AAAA *explode*

[nyanni.livejournal.com]

TTHANK YOU SO MUCH :OO! Too bad I'm at school right now and can't listen to it. DDD: I should've put the drama cd to my mp3 player haha

BUT. THANK YOU!<3 ; __;;

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

You're welcome!

Haha...these would be so great to listen to while on a bus. I'd start giggling and the passengers would be like wtfff.

[madhatterarashi.livejournal.com]

Thank you for translating! I heard the tracks yestarday but had some hard time understanding everything since my Japanese is really at a low level...

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

You're welcome!

I totally understand. Your Japanese has to be at a pretty high level to be able to understand these...I couldn't do it at all until Kosuke transcripted it first, and defined like every word with three syllables or more, haha. And GOD AMERICA TALKS SO FAST.

[kohikki.livejournal.com]

OH MY GOD, I LOVE YOU FOR THIS FOR EVER AND EVER.
THAAAAANK YOUUUUU!

[vavarazzi.livejournal.com]

o_o EVERLASTING LOVE IS GOOD!

You're welcome~.

[cherryfruit.livejournal.com]

Ha! I love it. ♥

"Non" is "no" in French. The N is silent though, so it's supposed to be pronounced pretty much the same way it is in English.

[lemiru.livejournal.com]

Oh gosh I love you! I had such a hard time understanding more than just a few snippets ;_;
Thank you so much for your time and effort. <3

[raineyz.livejournal.com]

*WORSHIPS* THANK YOU SO MUCH *______*

[polandlithuania.livejournal.com]

Thanks a lot for your hard work!

[sushigal007.livejournal.com]

Oh man, you're awesome! Yeah, non is Frence for no, I guess maybe he's dragging it out a bit? I haven't heard it, I'll have to get it. Um. Yes. Adored creepy creepy Russia. And poor Lithuania. And America and his Jennybot. And France disagreeing with UK and America JUST BECAUSE. And UK just being adorable. You and robo_subaru are fantastic

[ya-kun.livejournal.com]

Thanks for taking the time to translate this and sharing it with us, Awesome People Who Know Moonspeak :D

"Whaat! Be quiet, UK~..." and "Mmn, when led by other countries, my desire to do anything disappears, y'knoow..." made me love America even more ahahaha. And the fact that UK keeps on disagreeing with America makes me smile... in a totally not-Russia-like-and-not-France-like way.

UUUUNGGGGGGHHHHH~ ♥♥♥

I apologize for my html phail in my previous comment ORZ

[nataku-kun.livejournal.com]

Woah, I love you guuuuuuuuuuys! This rocks, now I actually know what's going on rather than just trying to fill in spaces with my imagination XD

Is it just me or does the whole CD have a AmericaxUK vibe to it?

[aphelion-orion.livejournal.com]

*snork* Oh man, that's so cute. And SO true. XDDD
