Can someone translate me the following:
Quiero sentirme a tres metros sobre el cielo
I want to say: I want to feel like at 3 meters above the sky...or something like that. The ones who've watched the movie 3MSC will understand what I mean to say.
I read some examples, like:
Quisiera sentirme tres metros por encima del cielo.
Quiero volvere sentirme como a tres metros sobre el cielo

Are they correct?

I read some examples, like:
Quisiera sentirme a tres metros por encima del cielo.
Quiero volvere a sentirme ~~como~~ a tres metros sobre el cielo.

Are they correct?

The second-to-last sentence translates as "I'd like to feel like I'm three meters above heaven."
The last sentence translates as "I want to feel like I'm three meters above heaven again."

I have a question Rusty.

She's trying to translate a phrase above,

I mean, I'm agree with you above the correct translation, but I'm know for the experience I have,

The word above is sobre but when I use a phrase simple phrase about one thing or object,

Then the phrase would to leaves so.

I want to be 3 meter over the sky.

I mean over because I think is the most correct for both situations in this phrase.

I accept commentaries above.

I want to be 3 meters over the sky. (sentirme a tres <> to be 3)

I mean 'over' because I think it's the more correct translation for :?:both situations:?: in this phrase.

I accept comments about my question.

'Sobre el cielo' can be translated as 'above the sky', 'over the sky', 'above heaven' and 'above the heavens'.

I just checked the web to see what people are using as the English title of the movie '3 Metros Sobre el Cielo' (2010).
Here are the translations I found, from the most popular to the least popular:

Three Meters Above the Sky
Three Meters Over the Sky
3 Meters Above the Sky
Three Steps Above Heaven (the IMDb title of the 2010 film) (22,100 hits)
3 Metres Over the Sky
Three Metres Above the Sky
3 Metres Above the Sky
Three Meters Above Heaven (close to the IMDb title, the translation I gave keeps Meters in the title) (5,980 hits)
3 Meters Over the Sky
3 Steps Above Heaven
3 Meters Above Heaven
Three Meters/Metres Above Heaven
Three/3 Meters Above the Heavens

(BrE spelling in gray.)

(The above results may include translations of the Italian movie 'Tre Metri Sopra il Cielo' (2004).)
