Lyrics in Spanish HERE
Do you think you could translate the first two stanzas and the chorus of the song Hawai-Bombay so that it can be sung in English?
Stanza 1:
Hawai-Bombay
son dos paraísos
que a veces yo
me monto en mi piso
Hawai-Bombay
son de lo que no hay .
Stanza 2:
Hawai-Bombay
me meto en el baño
le pongo sal
y me hago unos largos
para nadar
lo mejor es el mar.
Chorus:
Y al ponerme el bañador
me pregunto
cuándo podre ir a Hawai
y al untarme el bronceador
me pregunto
cuándo podre ir a Bombay .
(My attempt HERE) (Verses 3 and 4 HERE)
MUSICAL "HOY NO ME PUEDO LEVANTAR" IES XESUS TABOADA CHIVITE 2016:
PEPE MÚJICA (HUMAN, THE MOVIE)
What is it that makes us human? Is it that we love, that we fight ? That we laugh ? Cry ? Our curiosity ? The quest for discovery ?
Driven by these questions, filmmaker and artist Yann Arthus-Bertrand spent three years collecting real-life stories from 2,000 women and men in 60 countries. Working with a dedicated team of translators, journalists and cameramen, Yann captures deeply personal and emotional accounts of topics that unite us all; struggles with poverty, war, homophobia, and the future of our planet mixed with moments of love and happiness.
