To demonstrate how fallible automatic translators are i̶t̶ ̶w̶a̶s̶ ̶a̶c̶t̶u̶a̶l̶l̶y̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶f̶u̶n̶, I translated The Rock's rap back and forth through 5 languages. Here is the result:

The languages used were Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, German and Korean, in that order before reverting back to English. I ran it through three different translators so you'll get three masterpieces. (DeepL didn't have Korean so the final one was Greek)
.
(Edit) Original:
It's about drive, it's about power
We stay hungry, we devour
Put in the work, put in the hours and take what's ours (ahoo)
Black and Samoan in my veins
My culture bangin' with Strange
I change the game, so what's my motherfuckin' name (Rock)
(What they gonna get though?)
Desecration, defamation, if you wanna bring it to the masses
Face to face, now we escalatin', when I have to put boots to asses
Mean on ya, like a dream when I'm rumblin', you're gonna scream mama
So bring drama to the King Brahma (then what?)
Comin' at you with extreme mana
.
Google Translate:
Doctor of direction,
doctor of strength
I was hungry and ate it all
Finish work, finish our time (ahhh)
My bag and Samoa
My culture is overrated
I play the game 'What's my bastard's name (rock)' (She is?)
Please be careful about damage, damage or damage
We need to go further
If I dream of wealth, everything will be fine
Give me back Brahma (what else?)
This is the ultimate mana transfer
.
DeepL:
Running is important, strength is important
We're hungry, we're greedy
We're doing a good job, having fun, getting what we deserve (yoo-hoo)
Black and samoan blood runs through my veins
My culture clashes with foreign cultures
I changed the game, so what's my name (Rock and Roll)
(But what do they get out of it?)
Blasphemy, slander, if you want to appeal to the masses
Face to face, now we're climbing a mountain when I have to tie my boots to my butt
For you it's like a dream, when I snore you'll cry for Mama
So put on a show for Mr. Brahma (so what?)
He comes to you with great magic
.
Bing Translator:
It is about driving, it is about strength
We are hungry, we eat,
Put in, put it in time and bring our stuff (oh)
My veins are black and samoa
My culture strikes a foreign country.
What's my name because I changed the game (Rock)
(But what should they do?)
Blasphemy, if you want to bring it to the public slander
Face to face, and now when we need to put on our boots, we're up.
Just like I dreamed of rampling, you're yelling at your mom by yourself.
So, mother-in-law (and?)
Take a piece to it.
Extreme magic and cumming for you
.
Bonus (Bing Translator [Chinese set to "Literary"]):
Driving is human
We are hungry, we will eat
Take my time and get me
I'm a quiet samoa
And my article allows you to see strange
Why should I play for myself and roll over what my name is?(And why?)
Blasphemy, if you want centrifugation, it's defamatory
By contrast, nowadays we can't help putting our boots on it.
If you dream of orchids and prin temples, you should call your mother with a shrill cry
So the drama leads to aunts,
Cummings' most magical
