Disney Songs in their “Home” Language (click to listen)

translations:
“Singing, song of all songs, that says again and again I’m yours.”
“Even if your heart is lost, you have to believe anyway, the dream of a life is love.”
“I know what happens, you hold me in your arms.”
“Hoping for the sweet moment where your questions are answered.”
“I want to live another life !”
“Leave your heart to me, and it will see an amazing world.”
“He’s sweet, the god of my heart.”
“Everyone take up arms together, let the Huns despair!”
“Flower, bright and beautiful, do not leave me alone.”

Language and translations are fascinating! What a great post

Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t Cinderella, at least, traced back to China?

Yes, Yeh-Xian is one of the oldest known forms of the Cinderella story! It is, however, vastly different from the French Cendrillon, which the Disney movie is based on. The Cinderella tale itself is thought to be even older that Yeh-Xian however: the original might go back even further.
