Okay, after 30 minutes of research, I'm throwing my hands up and crying in frustration.
Does ANYBODY ON EARTH, including the composer, know the ACTUAL lyrics to the chorus for Yoko Kanno's "Inner Universe?"
I've seen two different Russian words and one BS-looking phrase in "Old Latin" offered up for the first line, all in roughly _equal_ numbers, and a bunch of Latin pedants saying "Aeria gloris" is definitely not a thing.
I'm going full Twilight Sparkle Lesson Zero here folks. *frazzle*🙀
More detail for the curious:
The Russian I'm seeing either is "Налюбуйтесь" or "Полюбуйтесь" — which anime fans insist BOTH mean "watch in awe," yet Google translates respectively as "Happy Birthday" and "Have fun." *hackles start to rise*
I'm also seeing "Mana du Vortus," which sounds like Elementary School Latin to me and ONLY appears in searches for Inner Universe lyrics, and "No one to notice," which is so wrong it makes me want to start biting through whole two-by-fours. =>_<=
Argh.
OK, if anyone cares, I think I nailed the Inner Universe lyric.
Налюбуйтесь brings up nothing but Inner Universe lyrics on Google, and I find no support for the idea it means "get married."
полюбоваться, conversely, does mean something like "admire" or "feast your eyes on" per Wiktionary, and that makes total sense in context.
Dr. Rez, Lyricologist Of Mars, can rest easy.
[EDIT: Except, going back to the song, the lyric sounds nothing like it. RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWRRRRRR! 😿]
