Guess the song, anybody?

[conuly]

1. Mica, mica, parva stella!
Miror quaenam sis tam bella!
Splendens eminus in illo
Alba velut gemma, caelo
Mica, mica, parva stella!
Miror quaenam sis tam bella

2. Tres mures! Tres mures!
Caeci currunt! Caeci currunt!
Erat uxor agricolae,
Quae caudas secuit cultro.
Vidistine magis mirabilem
Quam tres mures?

3. Pluvia, pluvia, desine.
Veni huc alio die!

4. Ba-la ovis, est lanitum tibi?
Sic vir, sic vir, sunt tres sacci mihi.
Primum patrono, alterum matronae,
Tertium repono, puerulo villae.
Ba-la ovis, est lanitum tibi?
Sic vir, sic vir, sunt tres sacci mihi.

The only one I can't figure out is #3. I know a few root words that confirm structures and some other words. :-)

Nevermind, I figured it out. Ah, the effects of Spanish...and the song I'm listening to right now!! I would say the title, but its main phrase is "Too much ____ over paradise" ("______" indicates the operative word).

Y'know, I thought you'd said CAN figure out. Sorry.

Yes, well, some of these are loose translations. But three... what do you guess? I can delete/screen your comment later, after all.

Rain rain go away (and "Too Much Rain" over paradise was the song I was listening to when I was trying to figure it out)

I'm enjoying the site now way too much. I'm guessing at them all, without looking until I can no longer stand it.

*grins* They don't have VERY many songs. And some of them, the translations aren't that great. *shrugs* I speak from the lofty height of TWO WHOLE YEARS of study. Naturally, I'm practically fluent :) I won't bother screening, though you're right. I'm just lazy.
