Let It Go Lyrics In 25 languages

Disney's newest movie, 'Frozen' is considered as the best Disney animated musical since the 90s. The main song of this movie is titled 'Let It Go', originally sung by Boradway's Idina Menzel, who voiced the deuteragonist Queen Elsa. But because of it's success, 'Let It Go' has been recorded into 25 different languages. Disney then graciously put all those recordings into one video.

Out of curiosity, I tried to compile the lyrics myself. But during the search, I come across Rebecca Green's YouTube video which contain the complete, and, as far as my instinct tells me, precisely enough, lyrics. So, being the lazy boy I am, I decided to just copy the lyrics here, and hope that she didn't mind ._.

After another browsing session, I come across this post, and decided to copy it here too.



The ultimate English Let it go version is…

French: The kingdom of loneliness, my place will always be here
German: The wind, it howls like the storm deep inside me
Dutch: It became to much for me, no matter how hard I tried
Mandarin: Don’t let them come, (don’t let them) see. Be the good girl, just like how you used to be.
Swedish: Don’t show anything whatever you do… Everything is ruined!
Japanese: The true self, (I will) show (it)
Latin American Spanish: I am free, I am free… freedom without having to return!

Cantonese:
誰亦要 => Everybody should
全心脏 => be full of dirty mind (heart = mind)
忘掉就天比高 => forget, then reach high as sky

It is definitely wrong. It should be:
誰亦要 => Everybody should
隨心歌 => sing by heart
忘掉昨天悲歌 => forget yesterday sad song

:-)

further more "Shuí yì yào quán xīnzàng
Wàngdiào jiù tiān bǐ gāo" is not Cantonese Romanization but Chinese Pinyin.

It should be:

seoi4 jik6 jiu3 ceoi4 sam1 go1
mong4 diu6 zok3 jat6 bei1 go1

Have a nice day!

Mandarin part of pronunciation wrong :
别让他们进来看见,做好女孩,就像妳的从前
Bù ràng biérén jìnlái kànjiàn
Zuò hǎo nǚhái, jiù xiàng nǎi de cóngqián

Correct one:
bié ràng tamen jìnlái kànjiàn
Zuò hǎo nǚhái, jiù xiàng nǐ de cóngqián
