Does anyone know of songs whose lyrics were originally in English, and were either translated or had new lyrics written from scratch in any of these languages?

-Chinese, any dialect
-Spanish
-Danish
-Farsi

An example of such would be Joey Yung's song "Unknown" using the music of Jennifer Paige's song "Crush" - they're both on YouTube, if anyone is curious.

EDIT - Thanks to all commenters, I have what I need!
