   I speak Tagalog, but will not dare translate it. Won’t make sense. Next translation request, please.

   Small – maliit
   Sweet – matamis
   Islands – mga Isla (with "s" it should be accompany by the word "mga", pronounce as ma-nga)

   "Small Sweet Islands"

   "Mga munting matatamis na isla"

   literally in tagalog, small sweet islands is
   "maliliit na matatamis na mga isla".

   but a better translation might be
   "mga islang masasarap at maliliit"

   "masarap" is delicious
   "maliit" is small
   "mga isla" is islands

   as bopols said, your phrase doesn’t make any sense. literally, the translation is below:
   small – maliit
   sweet – matamis
   islands – mga isla / mga pulo
   thus,
   maliliit at matatamis na isla / maliliit at matatamis na pulo

   it doesn’t make sense because you don’t describe an island as sweet. gustatory-wise, you do not "taste" or "eat" an island.

   think of another adjective so your phrase will come out better:
   ex: small, beautiful islands
   maliliit at magagandang isla / pulo

   it wont make sense if you say it in tagalog but…
   small= maliit
   sweet= matamis
   island/ islands= isla/islas

   maliit at matamis ang mga islas= the islands are small and sweet ( sweet meaning like sugary sweet)
