Hungarian to English Art/Literary Music lyrics
Hope that it won't be a violation proz.com of rules to ask for a translation of the WHOLE refrain of Omega's "Girl with Pearl Hair". If I should break it up into, say, four separate questions, please let me know. Thx in advance :-)

Igen, él egy gyöngyhajú lány
Álmodtam, vagy igaz talán
Gyöngyhaj azóta rég
Mély tengerbe ért
Proposed translations (English)

Here is an attempted translation, with some approximation and a fair amount of poetic licence: http://home.unilang.org/main/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7264

girl with the pearl hair

Igen, él egy gyöngyhajú lány
Álmodtam, vagy igaz talán
Gyöngyhaj azóta rég
Mély tengerbe ért
Yes, she is alive, the girl with the pearl hair;
A girl of my dreams, or maybe she is real?
Her pearl hair since then has reached
The bottom of the the deep seas.
Something went wrong...
