The Girl from Ipanema Lyrics
Olha que coisa mais linda,
mais cheia de graça
É ela menina
que vem que passa
Num doce balanço
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 e tão triste
Ah, a beleza que existe
A beleza que não é só minha
que também passa sozinha
Ah, se ela soubesse
que quando ela passa
O mundo sorrindo
se enche de graça
E fica mais lindo
por causa do amor
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes
Each one she passes goes, aaaaaah
When she walks, she's like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gently
That when she passes
Each one she passes goes, aaaaaah
Ooh, 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 him
Tall, and tan, and young, and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes
He smiles, but she doesn't see
Ooh, but he sees her 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 him
Tall, and tan, and young, and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes
He smiles, but she doesn't see
mais cheia de graça
É ela menina
que vem que passa
Num doce balanço
caminho do mar
do sol de Ipanema
O seu balançado
é mais que um poema
É a coisa mais linda
que eu já vi passar
Ah, porque tudo e tão triste
Ah, a beleza que existe
A beleza que não é só minha
que também passa sozinha
que quando ela passa
O mundo sorrindo
se enche de graça
E fica mais lindo
por causa do amor
The girl from Ipanema goes walking

Each one she passes goes, aaaaaah
That swings so cool and sways so gently
That when she passes

Yes, he would give his heart gladly
But each day, when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at him
The girl from Ipanema goes walking

How can he tell her he loves her

Here's a translation of the portugese part:
Look at this thing, most lovely most graceful It's her, the girl that comes, that passes with a sweet swinging walking to the sea
Girl of the golden body from the sun of Ipanema Your swaying is more than a poem It's a thing more beautiful than I have ever seen pass by
Ah, why am I so alone Ah, why is everything so sad The beauty that exists The beauty that is not mine alone that also passes by on its own
Ah, if she only knew that when she passes the world smiles fills itself with grace and remains more beautiful because of love
it is not Metal but its good anyway. I found numerous versins in different languages and different lyrics. I love this song so much although I am a Metalhead!
"Ah, why am I so alone Ah, why is everything so sad " this shit hits hard and absolutely think this song could be translated into a metal version. add the anger of being sad and alone...perfect formula
Aaahh...... This song almost makes me cry the way it evokes the painful pleasure of admiring the beauty of a girl you know will not be interested in you. Hurts so good, especially at my age! Thanks to Bladet for the translation too.
This is such a beautiful song. I love Astrud's voice and I love the version that actually has the Portuguese part instead of jumping ahead to the English lyrics. The beat is so great and I loved it in the movie V for Vendetta when V is frying eggs with an apron on listening to this in the background :)
A lot of elevator music does end up metal
About a Brazilian beauty that has all the guys going crazy for her. It also focuses on a boy who is madly in love with her.
Love this song!
