(He sings with Italian accent)
If a couple of songs was enough for that from the sky
it was raining old loves that a night they left.
It can happen, It can happen,
Until the desert can be full with sea water.
If two simple songs was enough to join us all
I could sing so loud that the deafs can hear me,
It can happen, It can happen,
untill the walls, which we don't expect, can be opened.
If two good songs was enough to lend a hand
It would be had thousand reasons to be more human
It can happen, It can happen,
to stop going charity's remedy.
It is dedicated to all those who are abandoned.
It is dedicated to all those who are with a indifferent future, without a past, without a present
It is dedicated to all those who are desperate
It is dedicated to all those who are in a deep dream more off than on world.
If two great songs was enough to do well the things,
If they brought the thousand illusions of the sweet dreams
and a heart, and a heart
which transmits us heat by beating and the sun force.
It is dedicated to....
What is happening that a couple of songs is not enough?

It Is(4) Dedicated To All Those Who Are [] In Love.

If a couple of songs wERE(1) enough [] that from the sky
it WOULD raiN old loves that LEFT ONE night.
It can happen, It can happen,
Until the desert can be full with sea water.
If two simple songs wERE enough to join us all
I could sing so loud that the deaF cOULD hear me,
It can happen, It can happen,
untiL the walls, which we don't expect, can be opened.
If two good songs wERE enough to lend a hand
A thousand reasons COULD BE FOUND to be more human
It can happen, It can happen,
to stop going TO THE remedy OF CHARITY(2).
It is dedicated to all those who are abandoned.
It is dedicated to all those who are with aN indifferent future, without a past, without a present
It is dedicated to all those who are desperate
It is dedicated to all those who are in a deep dream
more AWAY FROM than WITHIN THIS world.
If two great songs wERE enough to do [] things WELL,
If they brought the thousand illusions of the sweet dreams
and a heart, and a heart
which BY BEATING transmits TO us the sun'S HEAT AND force.
It is dedicated to....
What is happening that a couple of songs is(3) not enough?
(1) I think "was" is grammatically correct, since the subject is "couple", but I think of "a couple of songs" as a plural.
(2) I think charity is the remedy, not the owner of the remedy. So I would not translate "el remedio de la caridad" with a possessive.
(3) Now, in this case, "is" sounds better than "are". Don't ask me to explain it! :-)
(4) I would leave off all the "It is"s.
(1)but however "A group of friends" is singular
ReplyDelete(4)really? can I write "Dedicated to all...." ?
Interesting grammar notes, I don't know if I am more away from than within in this moment. Thank you so much.
(1) As I said, the singular verb is strictly correct, but it is a rule which is often broken. I would say "A group of friends is a great blessing", but I would also probably say "A group of friends are going out tonight". I think perhaps that Spanish has the same issue, because I have followed the "singular verb" rule in the past, and been told to use the plural verb instead.
ReplyDelete(4) I'd drop the "It is" because you don't need complete sentences. Title and lines of songs are frequently incomplete.
According to my dictionary(Oxford) are both right in two cases(couple and group), they work with singular or plural verb, so it doesn't seem there are broken rules actually.
ReplyDeleteBut I don't find the same treatment in Spanish, they both are singular, but if you give me an example, we could analyze it.
Anyway thanks I have liked this topic, I have learnt thank to this blog, I've learned it from experience.
