The Girl From Ipanema

Antonio Carlos Jobim / Norman Gimbel / Vinícius de Moraes

Tall and tan and young and lovely,
The girl from Ipanema goes walking,
And when she passes
Each one she passes goes "a-a-ah!"

When she walks she's like a samba that,
Swings so cool and sways so gentle,
That when she passes
Each one she passes goes "a-a-ah!"

Oh, but I watch her so sadly,
How can I tell her I love her?
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
But each day when she walks to the sea,
She looks straight ahead not at me

Tall and tan and young and lovely,
The girl from Ipanema goes walking,
And when she passes
I smile, but she doesn't see,
She just doesn't see,
No she doesn't see

Olha que coisa mais linda
Mais cheia de graça
É ela menina
Que vem e que passa
Num doce balanço, a caminho do mar

Moça do corpo dourado
Do sol de Ipanema
O seu balançado é mais que um poema
É a coisa mais linda que eu já vi passar

Ah, porque estou tão sozinho
Ah, porque tudo é tão triste
Ah, a beleza que existe
A beleza que não é só minha
E também passa sozinha

Ah, se ela soubesse
Que quando ela passa
O mundo interinho se enche de graça
E fica mais lindo
Por causa do amor
