TRANSLATE A QUOTE Hi! I need your help, I would like to translate a quote written by Frida Kahlo into English, it says: "Pies, ¿para qué los quiero si tengo alas para volar?" and I'm not sure if the most correct form would be "Feet, what do I want them for if I have wings to fly?" or exists another one more correct grammatically. Thanks!

Me parece que la persona que habla no habla DE sus pies, sino les dirige sus palabras A sus pies. Entonces la traducción sería: "Feet, what do I want you for when I have wings to fly?" ["when" suena muy natural en lugar de "if".]
