Portuguese term

Com quem será com quem será com quem será que o ## vai casar.

Portuguese to English Art/Literary Slang para legendagem
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...

Raquel, I've posted another answer with the corrections. And there's an option with rhymes as the original, including a rhyme for "depends", as you wanted. Best wishes! :)

Raquel, suesimons has pointed out a terrible mistake I've made. I was so worried about rhymes I did not pay much attention to my writing. This makes inevitable hiding my answer. I will post another one with the necessary corrections and all my ideas, OK? Sorry! :)

Who will it be, who will it be, that ### will take down the aisle?

Let's wait and see, let's wait and see, who captures his heart with her smile.

Who, who, who does ### intend to marry.

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

Who, who , who does ### intend to marry. It'll depend on whether ### wants to / accepts.

Who do you think, who do you think, who do you think ## will wed?

OK, I'm gonna give this another shot...
That'll depend, that'll depend, that'll depend on what's in his head!

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

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... :)
Note from asker:
Thanks a bunch!
Thank you so much for all your effort!

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

"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...:)
