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
Oh, porque estou tão sozinho
Oh, porque tudo é tão triste
Ah, a beleza que existe
A beleza que não é só minha e também passa sozinha
No she doesn't see
É por causa do amor
No she doesn't see
É por causa do amor
No she doesn't see
