Quiet nights of quiet stars
quiet chords from my guitar
floating on the silence that surrounds us

Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams
Quiet walks by quiet streams
and a window that looks out on Corcovado
Oh, how lovely

Um cantihno, Um violгo (A sweet song, a guitar)
Este amor, Uma canзгo (This love, A song)
P'ra fazer feliz a quem se ama (To make happy whom is loved.)

Muita calma p'ra pensar (Much calm to think)
E ter tempo p'ra sonhar (And have time to dream)
Da janela vк-se o Corcovado (From the window, Corcovado can be seen)
O Redentor, que lindo! (The Redeemer, how beautifull!)

Quero a vida sempre assim (I want life to always be like this.)
Com vocй perto de mim (With you right next to me)
atй o apagar da velha chama. ('till the love ends.)

E eu que era triste (And I who was sad)
Descrente deste mundo (Having lost faith in this world)
Ao encontra vocк eu conheci (I found you and then I knew)
o que й felicidade, meu amor (what happiness is, my love )
