7
14000
3000
やつらは春のせせらぎのつもりで

like they were songs of spring.
8

14
30000
2000
富裕層の住む近所をドライブ
00:57

15
32000
3000
なんもないところで捕まえたモッキンバードを
01:00
in a neighborhood where folks ain't got nada and just let it go, you know.
16
35000
3000
放してみよう 飛びたちゃ叫ぶ
01:03
Up goes the bird, out come the words, "Juanito, Juanito,
17
38000
3000
”(西語) Juanito viente a comer mi hijo!"
01:06
vente a comer mi hijo!"
18

俺は音を操るジョニー・アップルシード
01:11
(Laughter)

01:12
Cruising random city streets, rocking a drop-top Cadillac
21
47000
3000
気ままなドライブは キャデラックのオープンカー
01:15
with a big backseat, packing like 13 brown paper Walmart bags
22
50000
3000
後部にずらり モッキンバードが詰まったウォルマートの

3000
買い物バック これでみんなの声を頂きだ
01:21
(Laughter)
24
56000
1000
(笑)
01:22
I'll get the nitwit on the network news saying,
25
57000
2000
「事件の詳細はCMの後」
01:24
"We'll be back in a moment with more on the crisis."
26
59000
2000
なんて言ってるまぬけなキャスターも
01:26
I'll get some asshole at a watering hole asking what brand the ice is.
27
61000
2000
バーで氷のブランドを聞くおのろけも
01:28

71000
2000
「おい 新聞よこせよ」と怒った声も
01:38
I'll get a lonely, little sentence with real error in it,
32
73000
2000
誤解を招く孤独な少年の声も
01:40
"Yeah, I guess I could come inside, but only for a minute."
33
75000
2000
「中でもいいけど 長くは持たないよ」
01:42
(Laughter)
34
77000
1000
(笑)
01:43

35
78000
4000
中華街のESLクラスの「It's Raining, it's Pouring」も
01:47
I'll put a mockingbird on a late-night train just to get an old man snoring.
36
82000
3000
夜行電車のおじさんのいびきも逃さない
01:50
I'll get your ex-lover telling someone else, "Good morning."
37
85000
3000
別れた恋人が他の人に言う「おはよう」も
01:53
I'll get everyone's good mornings.
38
88000
2000
みんなの「おはよう」も採取しますよ
01:55
I don't care how you make 'em.
39
90000
2000
言い方なんて関係なし
01:57
Aloha. Konichiwa. Shalom. Ah-Salam Alaikum.
40
92000
3000
アロハ コンニチハ シャローム アッサラームアライク
02:00
Everybody means everybody, means everybody here.
41
95000
2000
皆とはミンナ 皆さんもです
02:02
And so maybe I'll build a gilded cage.
42
97000
2000
最後は金ぴかのかごを作って
02:04
I'll line the bottom with old notebook pages.
43
99000
2000
底には古いノートを敷いて
02:06
Inside it, I will place a mockingbird for --
44
101000
3000
その中にモッキンバードを入れるけど
02:09
short explanation, hippie parents.
45
104000
2000
要はヒッピーの両親のためなんです
02:11
(Laughter)
46
106000
1000
(笑)
02:12
What does a violin have to do with technology?
47
107000
3000
バイオリンとテクノロジーの関係？
02:15
Where in the world is this world heading?
48
110000
2000
世界はどこへ向かう？
02:17
On one end, gold bars --
49
112000
3000
片方は金の延べ棒―
02:20
on the other, an entire planet.
50
115000
2000
もう一方は全世界
02:22
We are 12 billion light years from the edge.
51
117000
3000
「地球から宇宙の果ては120億光年ある」
02:25
That's a guess.
52
120000
1000
こんなのは予測に過ぎない
02:26
Space is length and breadth continued indefinitely,
53
121000
3000
宇宙は縦横無尽 無限に続く
02:29
but you cannot buy a ticket to travel commercially to space in America
54
124000
3000
米国では宇宙旅行のチケットは買えない
02:32
because countries are beginning to eat like us, live like us and die like us.
55
127000
3000
世界中が米国のように食し 暮らし 死んでいる
02:35
You might wanna avert your gaze, because that
56
130000
2000
目をそらしたいだろ
02:37
is a newt about to regenerate its limb,
57
132000
3000
脚を再生しているイモリみたいだし
02:40
and shaking hands spreads more germs than kissing.
58
135000
3000
握手はキスよりも菌を振りまくんだから
02:43
There's about 10 million phage per job.
59
138000
2000
一回の握手で1000万の細菌だって
02:45
It's a very strange world inside a nanotube.
60
140000
3000
ナノチューブの世界はとっても奇妙
02:48
Women can talk; black men ski; white men build strong buildings;
61
143000
4000
女性は話し 黒人はスキーをし 白人がビルを建て
02:52
we build strong suns.
62
147000
2000
私達はギラギラ光るものを建てる
02:54
The surface of the Earth is absolutely riddled with holes,
63
149000
3000
すると地球の表面はもう穴だらけ
02:57
and here we are, right in the middle.
64
152000
4000
私たちがいるのはここ そのど真ん中
03:01
(Laughter)
65
156000
1000
(笑)
03:02
It is the voice of life that calls us to come and learn.
66
157000
3000
自然が「人類よ 学べ」と呼びかけている
03:05
When all the little mockingbirds fly away,
67
160000
2000
全てのモッキンバードが飛び立てば
03:07
they're going to sound like the last four days.
68
162000
3000
地球最後の４日間のような音を奏でるだろう
03:10
I will get uptown gurus, downtown teachers,
69
165000
3000
高所得の導師 市内の先生 借金した芸術家に
03:13
broke-ass artists and dealers, and Filipino preachers, leaf blowers,
70
168000
3000
ディーラー フィリピン系伝道師 枯れ葉清掃員
03:16
bartenders, boob-job doctors, hooligans, garbage men,
71
171000
2000
バーテンダー 豊胸医 フーリガン ゴミ収集員
03:18
your local Congressmen in the spotlight, guys in the overhead helicopters.
72
173000
2000
会見中の市議会委員 頭上のヘリの中のやつら
03:20
Everybody gets heard.
73
175000
2000
モッキンバードからは逃げられない
03:22
Everybody gets this one, honest mockingbird as a witness.
74
177000
4000
従順な証人モッキンバードが全てを聴き取ります
03:26
And I'm on this.
75
181000
2000
私も協力します
03:28
I'm on this 'til the whole thing spreads,
76
183000
2000
モッキンバードが全ての音を採取するまで
03:30
with chat rooms and copycats and moms maybe tucking kids into bed
77
185000
2000
チャットルームも人まね野郎も
03:32
singing, "Hush, little baby, don't say a word.
78
187000
3000
赤ちゃんを寝かしつけるママも
03:35
Wait for the man with the mockingbird."
79
190000
3000
「泣かないで モッキンバードの男が来るから」
03:38
(Laughter)
80
193000
1000
(笑)
03:39
Yeah. And then come the news crews, and
81
194000
2000
そしたら報道陣がやってきて
03:41
the man-in-the-street interviews, and the letters to the editor.
82
196000
2000
街頭インタビュー 編集者が手紙を受け取る
03:43
Everybody asking, just who is responsible for this citywide,
83
198000
3000
「国中をモッキンバードがわめき散らしている 誰の仕業だ？」
03:46
nationwide mockingbird cacophony, and somebody finally is going to tip
84
201000
3000
最後は誰かがカリフォルニアの
03:49
the City Council of Monterey, California off to me,
85
204000
3000
モントレー市議会に密告
03:52
and they'll offer me a key to the city.
86
207000
2000
秘密の鍵が俺の手に
03:54
A gold-plated, oversized key to the city
87
209000
2000
巨大な18金の鍵
03:56
and that is all I need, 'cause if I get that, I can unlock the air.
88
211000
4000
これを探してた これで鍵が開けられるよ
04:00
I'll listen for what's missing, and I'll put it there.
89
215000
4000
閉じ込められた声を聴き 発信していこう
04:04
Thank you, TED.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Rives - Performance poet, multimedia artistPerformance artist and storyteller Rives has been called "the first 2.0 poet," using images, video and technology to bring his words to life.
Why you should listen
Part poet, part storyteller, part philosopher, Rives is the co-host of TEDActive as well as a frequent TED speaker. On stage, his poems burst in many directions, exposing multiple layers and unexpected treats: childhood memories, grown-up humor, notions of love and lust, of what is lost forever and of what's still out there waiting to unfold. Chimborazo.
A regular on HBO's Def Poetry Jam, Rives also starred alongside model Bar Refaeli in the 2008 Bravo special Ironic Iconic America, touring the United States on a "roller coaster ride through the eye-popping panorama of American pop culture." Flat pages can't contain his storytelling, even when paper is his medium. The pop-up books he creates for children unfold with surprise: The Christmas Pop-Up Present expands to reveal moving parts, hidden areas and miniature booklets inside.
His latest project—the Museum of Four in the Morning—is an ode to a time that may well be part of a global conspiracy. In a good way.
