“Gu Glalub Ubla”

Gulla ghu'bo gu aglup Guha go
Aglup Glaglo go, aglup Guue go

Blo g blup ug oob, ug oob Gubla go

Blagluglug plubla ghlop glalobb bubl uuu...


[Note: Can't get any further on this today, I have daytime issues with my biological life and civilian duty to attend to, I'll try to get the full translation up at a later time.  Frick, it's tough to invent a reasonably believable makeshift alien dialect - with grammar rules - for a deadline only a few hours away, dammit!]



English Translation:



“Luring Me Up”

They've put me here against my Will
Against my Grain, against my Soul

I am still underwater, still under my Nature
But day by day, waking by waking
They are reeling me in, up to their surface

Those terrible machines and bitter pills
They've hooked my mind and I am caught
I tug and tug, but they pull even harder
And some even grin and laugh at my fight

How vast and gnawing the netting is on their masses!
The horrors of disfigure I now swim amongst!
And in the name of service and protection!

So I give in, I play along, for it to end
I wiggle forward to them, loosen my every fin
They take me out, completely, it is frightening
I cannot move, I am not contained
I cannot fathom the attachment to a floor

Then I feel nothing, nothing but a sleep
And I am still in their sleep

And if they ever turn not to watch me
I'll sneak over to those shores again
I will jump back in

Yes, I will jump back In.
