English term or phrase: to pass under the rainbow
I am analysing the phrase 'to pass under the rainbow' in various languages. In my native language (Croatian)it means 'if you pass under the rainbow oyur wishes will come through'. Although I can't grade the answers I would appreciate very much comments in as much languages as possible. Do you have such phrase in your language? Which is the connotation for a rainbow in your language?
Thanks a lot for all answers!

Explanation:
This is Czech translation. In my language, rainbow is a symbol of something we cannot reach, something very fragile, something what disappears when we try to touch it. But the sentence itself does not mean anything. at least I have never heard it.

Thanks to all answers. I guess other answers are equally good, but as to rules I have to grade one of them, although all of them are good. The explanation for this answer is actually what I was looking for, but in different languages. This type of questions should go to various language groups, and not the way I put it.
Thanks anyway to all of you.

Almorour tah ta Qaws Quzah
This is in Arabic language, but you know something? I think you have to ask this question as many as the languages you want, asking questions is free!
Suppose that many answerers give you the translations you are looking for, which one are you going to choose for the credit?!
Good luck :)
