No matter what?

No matter what they tell us,what we believe is true,only tears were laughter,and shelter from the storm ,a dream is being born...

Hi Amy, can you tell me, do you not understand what is being said or is it that you like the song?

It is actually a lovely song, and is poetic.

Amy has quoted several different sentences from the song, and they do not normally read like this, so it is hard to understand out of context.

I can say that' no matter what' is a common phrase to use.

It means that, it does not matter', so it means that it does not matter what other people say, they will still believe in what they believe.

No matter what they tell us.    (It does not matter what they tell us)
No matter what they do.         (It does not matter what they try and do)
No matter what they teach us. (It does not matter what they teach us)
What we believe is true          (We know we are right to think what we do)

Geez... don't any of you know "No Matter What" from Boyzone...? Hit in 1998. However, those are not the exact lyrics   ...oops, just found out it was originally a song from an Andrew Lloyd Webber musical...

 

Hi Amy! Can you speak more "lyric" English for us...?

[Chorus:]
No matter what they tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What we believe is true

No matter what they call us
However they attack
No matter where they take us
We'll find our own way back

I can't deny what I believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know I'll love forever
I know no matter what

If only tears were laughter
If only night was day
If only prayers were answered
Then we would hear God say

[Chorus]

And I will keep you safe and strong
And shelter from the storm
No matter where it's barren
A dream is being born
No matter who they follow
No matter where they lead
No matter how they judge us
I'll be everyone you need
No matter if the sun don't shine
Or if the skies are blue
No matter what the end is
My life began with you

I can't deny what I believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know, I know
I know this love's forever
That's all that matters now
No matter what!

May I ask to see these ideas in Chinese... I cannot quite work out what you are saying.  It is not grammatically wrong, but there are mixed tenses, and seemingly unrelated ideas, so the idea is not obvious.
