India Hooi, Vinícius de Moraes, Antônio Carlos Jobim, Hugo Selles and Javeta López - The Girl from Ipanema

Tall and tanned and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking and
When she passes, each one she passes goes: 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: ooh!

Oh, but he watches so sadly
How can he tell her he loves her?
Yes, he would give his heart gladly
But each day, when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at he

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, por que estou tão sozinho?
Ah, por que tudo é tão triste?
Ah, a beleza que existe
A beleza que não é só minha
Que também passa sozinha

Tall and tanned and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking and
When she passes, he smiles but she doesn't see
No she just doesn't see
No she just doesn't see
