龍人秘抄 (りゅうじんひしょう)

[中] 音似『梁塵秘抄 (りょうじんひしょう) 』。《梁尘秘抄》是平安时代末期编纂的歌谣集。一般认为该书由本编、口传集（口伝集）两部分组成，而本专辑名就是『伝』。书中最出名的一首歌谣（以「遊びをせんとや生れけむ」起头）曾出现在凋叶棕『薦』的『落日ロマンス』中。顺便，《梁尘秘抄》中有一首歌谣提及诹访大社：「関より東の軍神、鹿島・香取・諏訪の宮」。

另外「龍人秘抄」音同「龍人飛翔」。

[en] 龍人秘抄 is read as “Ryūjin Hishō”, which is similar to 梁塵秘抄 (Ryōjin Hishō, Songs to Make the Dust Dance on the Beams), an ancient anthology of songs and poems written in the late Heian period (around the year 1180). The book is believed to orginally consist of two sections, the second is called 口伝集 (Kudenshū), which shares a kanji with the title of this album 伝 (Tsutae). One of the most famous song in this book (beginning with 遊びをせんとや生れけむ) has been used by RD before in the song 落日ロマンス in 薦 (Susume). Interestingly, Ryōjin Hishō contains a song that mentions Suwa-taisha:　関より東の軍神、鹿島・香取・諏訪の宮.

秘抄 means “secret notes”, and is used in the title of a few ancient literary works e.g. 梁塵秘抄, 深窓秘抄, 官職秘抄.

秘抄 also sounds the same as 飛翔, so the title of this song sounds the same as 龍人飛翔 i.e. “Flight of Dragon and Human”. ↩︎ ↩︎

тобископ = то (точек = points) + би (биологической = biological) скоп (= scope)，所以该词的直译是「生物点探测仪」，鉴于这里的「生物点」指的就是中医的穴位，我决定将其译作「穴位探测仪」。
