@drummaboi1,
You're not annoying me, drummaboi1.
(...or maybe you're just not trying heard enough...)

I will reap music from my life.
Musicam ab vita mea metam.

Notice that we are now using "mea" ("my") instead of "tua" ("your'), and
instead of the imperative "mete" ("reap"), we are using the first person future
active, "metam" ("I shall reap").

@George,
Genious! thanks George I think I am understanding. Now to decide which of the three I would rather -> I can preach at people and tell them to reap music from their lives (musicam ab vita vestra metete) , I can talk to myself and tell myself to reap music from my life( musicam ab vita tua mete ) or I can state I will reap music from my life (Musicam ab vita mea metam) or ( I hope Im getting this right...) I can change metam to mete in the sentence "Musicam ab vita mea mete" and have it mean "I am reaping music from my life"...hopefully regardless you have been a great help

I would like a confirmation for "With all my heart" so far I've found "Per totus meus pectus pectoris" is that correct?

No, it is not. Beware of automated online translators.

"In toto corde meo"
-or-
"Ex toto corde meo"

The first is the most commonly used, as far as I know.

Could you please help me with:
"Dylan man"
in the sense of "a person who is keenly interested in the work of Bob Dylan".

I'm guessing "Homo Dylanus", but I've never studied Latin, and I'd appreciate your guidance.

Cheers.
George

(: So I was looking online for something to translate a little English into Latin for me,but I really don't trust those online translators. So maybe a real life person could help?

I'm writing this book that may require a little bit more Latin in the future,but for now I just need "Let the Devil's work be shown"

(or,something along the lines of that - permit the devil's deed to appear,etc).

Hopefully that doesn't sound too creepy,but I'd love it if someone could help.

Es semper in corde meo (You are always in my heart)?

@Rhuarc86,
Yep.

Depending on the context, it may also mean "Be always in my heart."
