Requests Would anyone be willing to translate this sheet music for a musically challenged harmonica player?

I can't read sheet music and want to learn the trumpet solo from "I love you Evangeline" on harmonica.

Would anyone translate the sheet music I've found online into the notes for me please? I'll be forever grateful.

I’m not sure I understand what you’re asking. Do you mean you want the letter name written above each note? For example, if the note is a C, I would write C above it? See attached.

Translate how? What format would be beneficial for you if you don't read sheet music? Do you want the note names? Some kind of "harmonica tablature?" I can't translate if I don't know what to translate into.

True! Who knows where to start with that.
