Pocahontas belongs to DISNEY!!!
-------------------------------
This was a request ^^
Translating this song was quite the challange, so I got galacticChicken to help me, and we did it together. I think it turned out pretty good :)
I want to say that the lyrics are good, but after hearing the perfect Arabic version, then it's so hard to say!! But, I think though that the lyrics give the message and therefore keep the original intention.
I think that Valgerður's voice fits well for Pocahontas. It's deep, but bright and she therefore doesn't sound ingorant.
I apologise for these two words my fellow Europeans :(
