Com quem será com quem será com quem será que o ### vai casar. Vai depender, vai depender, vai depender se a ### vai querer.

I don't know any song that expresses the same meaning, so i decided to translate it.

So far I have this...
I was looking for something rhyming with depend(s), but any suggestion will be appreciated.

Who will he wed? Who will he wed?
It all depends... / That will depend...

Explanation:
One more option and the only thing I can think of that rhymes with depend.

[new answer] Whom will it be, whom will it be, whom will it be that ### will be married to?


Explanation:
OK. Hopefully I've made no mistakes this time... My apologies for that insult to the eye! I am not that ignorant, cross my heart. I guess I was tired and distracted (I've been working overnight). Thanks, Sue, for warning me! I hope all is correct with this one. (If not, it's probably a CRTL+C/CRTL+V issue.)

OK, my try:
Whom will it be, whom will it be, whom will it be that ### will be married to?
It all depends, it all depends, it all depends if *** will say "I do".
Not rhyming with "depend", but rhyming nonetheless... Somewhat different from what you wanted, though. Sorry about that!
Just an option...

Here's a variant:
Married to whom, married to whom, will ### be married to whom?
It will depend, it will depend, it will depend if *** wants this groom.
I'm still working on a rhyme for "depend".
Trying to help...

OK. I've come up with this:
What girl wil be, what girl will be, what girl will be that ### as (a) bride will see?
It all depends, it all depends, it all depends if *** to dress (up) for him intends. (Or "...to do that intends.")
Phewww! Enough for my poor brain!

My apologies once more... :)

Who will it be,who will it be,who will it be, dear ### that will marry thee?


Explanation:
"Thee" is old english, but it is still used in the very ceremony! "with this ring I thee wed..." I think it's pretty acceptable, considering that it respects rhyme and metric...

I'll keep working on the second part...:)
