On A Cruel Angel's Thesis

Personally, I'm intrigued about those words sung during the instrumental portion of CAT. I've seen the Japanese wikipedia article which claims that the 'gibberish' are actually:

ファリア セタ (又はセバ、セパ) メッソ ファリア トゥスェ
Faria seta (seba、sepa) messo faria tuse


Perusing a bit on the internet, I saw very much the same thing posted in some other sites, with a few variations on the above.

The wiki article claims that those lyrics are actually culled from a European mythology translated into some modern-day language (relevant portion is as follows; sorry if there is no English translation):

この曲を手がけた大月俊倫は、作詞家と作曲家をあえて一度も会わせずに制作させており、作詞を担当した及川眠子は本編内容をほぼ全く知らない状態で作詞している。ちなみに、一番 - 二番の間のコーラスの歌詞は「ファリア セタ(又はセバ)メッソ ファリア トゥスェ」で、まだ解読されていないヨーロッパ地方の神話を現在の言語をもとにコーラスにした。故に、この意味は未だ不明である。


The article also says that as of now, what the words mean are still unclear. SOMEBODY FANWANK THIS!!! ^_^

Bumping this. This isn't the thread I was referring in this post,(there was a recent post I made about this issue in a rebuild thread but for the life of me I can't remember where ), but I'm still curious if anybody knows the answer to this.

I merged in pat's thread (which you, mysteriously, didn't notice at the time); look above your bump post.
