S here again, this time bustin' rhymes for our main boy Isaac, number one Dutchman playin' left, right, front, and center; battin' for all kinds of teams, you better believe it! I'd like to holla back to SalomeSensei who's the most gangstalene fanfiction writer from to the pages of LJ and the one who started these sick beats with her raps for Mugen and Fuu (man, you know you wanna check those out! She ain't called the sensei for nothin', my homies!) And finally I give props to our Mister Watanabe so I can keep this shit legit.

Got somethin' to say to me? You fools know how to press the review button, so no frontin'!


Spreekt er iemand Nederlands hier?

No, you say? Well let me make things clear

They sent me here on strictly business but I've got my own agenda,

So if you get a wink or smile I'm not trying to offend ya

But when I'm lookin' at the ladies I'm not thinkin' 'bout tonight

And when I'm askin' after players I'm not lookin' for a fight

I'm a brother-loving brother: Verstaat u mij?

I came to watch our sales but there's so much more to see!

.

In the Nagasaki sun

I've been lookin' for the one

A sandogasa on his head

Out sweatin' in the rice beds

Perhaps some stoic samurai

Hakama split down to the thigh

Or a servant of the word

Writin' for a feudal lord

Could be a sailor on the sea

Who'd claim his biggest catch was me!

And prints I see still pique my hunger

For masters of the moku hanga

.

Oh, I've met men pale and finely drawn,

But none pure white as cooked gohan!

And we have those who've seen sun,

But none so tan as anpan buns!

Back home I'm quite a strapping guy,

Here my head almost scrapes the sky!

But best of all there's no objections

No need to front 'bout my intentions

To seek out, worship, wed, and fawn

Over my luttel otto-san

.

But I'm not in a real big rush

And I don't want to ask too much

Of a land that's made my rep

Somethin' worthy of respect

.

Still I'll be keepin' out an eye

For when that someone passes by

Be he a sweet sakura bloom

Growing safe from gloom and doom

Or a wandering warrior spirit

Who can take it as'well as deal it

Or yet another craning neck

With sun-kissed cheeks made just to peck

.

I'll say "Ik hou van jou", he'll say "daisuki desu"

We'll look "recht door zee", and you can guess the rest

.

For now just know the name is Isaac, and, players, keep up on your toes

Holland's known for growing tulips; I aim to offer up a rose.


As you can tell I had to do a little shufflin' through the great pages of the net for some Dutch phrases, so, to keep all you players feelin' smart, I'll go ahead and translate them for you:

Spreekt er iemand Nederlands hier? - Does anyone here speak Dutch?

Verstaat u mij? - Do you understand me?

luttel - little

Ik hou van jou - I love you

Recht door zee - straight ahead (got this one from my Periodic Table of Languages Poster, so don't hate if you think it's random...it's supposed to be a sort of country catch phrase, but the US's is "Can do" an I don' be frontin' when I say I ain't ever heard no one say that, so I don know how legit it is...)

By the way, "moku hanga" is the art of block printing, 'case ya'll don' keep up on your japanese art styles.

Also, I know there's always a player out there who's got a ton more goin' on up there than I do, so if you know some of my translations aren't legit holla back pronto, boo! Language is a hobby an' I wanna be sure everything's straight, you got it?
