Very cool, Max!
I don't know how correct it is grammatically, but that doesn't matter to a gringo like me.
From my understanding, literal word-for-word translations don't usually work. For instance, the Butch Hancock song "She Never Spoke Spanish To Me" includes the line "Spanish is the loving tongue", but when Los Texas Tornados cut it, they called the song "Bonito Es El Espanol" which is not quite the same. I guess that in order to make rhymes and idiomatic speech work, you have to take liberties with translation.
In any case...nice job.

thank you kurt - I tried to stay simple as possible to avoid any spanish idiomatic speech that I dont know. But I notice with pleasure that me and mike have the same spanish vocabolary LOL, I could add mi casa es tu casa, la isla bonita, vamos a bailar la bamba, and some other expressions not to be public spoken...
ciao gringos
