I bought a key board for my fiance's birthday for her to learn to play piano (she plays a bunch of other stuff already) but I I want to lean how to play Beethoven's moonlight sonata to play for her when I give it to her (some one played it for us the night I purposed to her), however my problem is I don't know how to play any instrument except a dijeridu, so my question is how imposable would be for me lean to play something close to it with an hour a day for a month with sheet music I can hardly read?

Without reading music, it will be a difficult task. My suggestion would be to pick it out by ear, but only the basic triplet chordal rhythm and the melody and only a short bit of that. The most recognizable part.

BTW you can look at the music here. It's a pdf file so it takes a bit to load. It will give you an idea (even if you can't read music) to see the difficulty of what you ask.\

Find smeone you know who can read and or play music, and maybe you may have a good shot at it. I think she would appreciate your most earnest and sincere attempt regardless of your proficiency. A very nice thought indeed!

Thank you very much for your input. I have now have a copy of the sheet music, and I think that I have most of the notes right, or close. I Have the first four mesures down okay and I think I will have help with the rest of the first page and be done.
Thanks
