English experts, please don't validate this translation or ask for votes - Tantine and I are trying an experiment with Roller_Coaster.

O-k-a-a-y...?
An "experiment"...? I guess I'd better not ask: I might not want to know...!

Hehe,

Three women and an experiment is enough frighten the hardiest of cucumisters.

Don't worry Ian san, our intentions are purely linguistic and our methods totally poetic.

OK, Tantine with your bises, here we go. Remember that she has explicitly asked that the 2nd & 4th line rhyme, although I'm sure she wouldn't mind if a few more of them did, too.

You never know what day can bring,
In one moment she could call it all her own,
But life has strange rules,
Now, there's no one to love - she's alone.
Although the princess, a real young lady,
Has been loved by all,
Her wishes were demands,
And now her life is sad and quiet.
That kingdom disappeared in one night,
Malicious people ruined everything,
And in this way, from our princess,
Never will become a queen.
Beside everything, she's brave,
She fights as she knows and can,
She dries up her tears and moves along,
Doesn't let her life to do her wrong.

Very good Roller. PLease fogive me for minor changes :-))

You never know what a day can bring,
In one moment they had it all,
But life has strange rules,
Now, she has noone.
Although the princess and a real young lady,
Has been loved by all,
Her wishes were demands,
And now her life is sad and quiet.
That kingdom disappeared in one night,
Malicious people ruined everything,
therefore our princess,
will never become a queen.
And beside everything, she's brave,
She fights as she knows and as she can,
She wipes her tears and moves along,
Doesn't let her life to do her wrong.

I'm sorry - I'm too tired to do that - I thought maybe you could just tell me, and explain why.

I had changed it to the current version of lines 2 & 4 as the requester had requested that those two lines rhyme.

I will make the other changes you suggested.

Is "beside everything" supposed to mean "in spite of everything" or "in addition to everything else"?

Hi Kafetzou, lakil, roller

I was just wondering whether the line that reads "her wishes were demands" should not read "her wishes were commands.

A particular saying comes to mind "your wishes are my commands", which implies, more or less, that you can ask that person anything and they will supply you with it"

IMHO, "demands" is too weak as a "demand" is a request. "commands" are orders, to be obeyed. So her wishes were orders that were to be obeyed, because she was a "princess".

Hope this helps

Bises

Sorry, lakil, I think you misunderstood: My question was an either/or question (so the answer can't be "yes".

Tantine,

"Commands" is the right word

Kafetzou,

"in spite of everything"

Samo da pitam, da li je eksperiment uspeo? Šalim se, nije loše ispao prevod, ja se lično ne bih nikada upustio u prevođenje pesama i poezije, osim za dušu, eventualno!
