Hola Lelu! I will try, but my Spanish is not perfect, so I may not always choose the right one : )

 

Can you help me with this translation? :)

Hi! These are a few sentences of the song called "Riptide" from the artist Vence Joy.

And I was wondering about the correct translation. So please let me know by crossing off the wrong option.

These are the sentences in which I have doubt. I Leave the song under it. Thanx

Which would be the best translation?


1) “I was scared of dentists and the dark”  (Me asustaban/Estaba asustada) de los dentistas y la obscuridad
2) “I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations”  (Me asustaban/Estaba asustada) de las chicas bonitas y (conversaciones empezadas/empezar conversaciones)
3) “Oh, all my friends are turning green”  ah, todos mis amigos se estan volviendo (verdes/inmaduros) En ingles tenemos una frase "to be green with envy" entonces, volviendo verde significa volviendo envidioso.

4) “Oh, and they come unstuck”  ah, y vienen (fracasados/destrabados) se derrumban (??) "to come unstuck" o "to gome unglued" significa que ellos pierden control emocional.

5) “Lady, running down to the riptide”  Señora, (corriendo contra la corriente/corriendo hacia la contracorriente) (ella está corriendo abajo la playa hacia la agua)

6) “I want to be your left hand man”  quiero ser tu hombre de (desconfianza/mano izquierda) Esto es un cambio de la frase "right hand man" (mano deretcha) y puede significar la mano en que se pone el anillo de boda

7) “I love you when you're singing that song”  te quiero cuando estas (cantando/cantas) esa cancion

8) “This cowboy is running from himself”  este vaquero esta (corriendo por su cuenta/huyendo de si mismo)

9) “If you're going to, if you're going to stay”  yo vos vas a, si vos vas a (quedarte/estar)

Gracias, esta es una cancion nueva para me y me gusta mucho!

 

Riptide, de Vance Joy

I was scared of dentists and the dark
I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations
Oh, all my friends are turning green
You're the magician's assistant in their dream
Oh, and they come unstuck
Lady running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I want to be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
Because you're going to sing the words wrong

There's this movie that I think you'll like
This guy decides to quit his job
And heads to New York City
This cowboy is running from himself
And she's been living on the highest shelf
Oh, and they come unstuck

I just want to, I just want to know
If you're going to, if you're going to stay
I just got to, I just got to know
I can't have it, I can't have it any other way
I swear she's destined for the screen

Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer
That you've ever seen, oh
