The Girl From Ipanema Lyrics [English] Tall and tan 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 gently That when she passes, each one she passes goes, ah 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 Tall and tan and young and lovely The girl from Ipanema goes walking And when she passes he smiles, but she doesn’t see Oh, 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 he Tall and tan and young and lovely The girl from Ipanema goes walking And when she passes he smiles, but she doesn’t see She just doesn’t see No she doesn’t see But she doesn’t see Garota de Ipanema Letras Portuguesas 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. Ah, se ela soubesse Que quando ela passa, O mundo sorrindo Se enche de graça E fica mais lindo Por causa do amor. The Girl From Ipanema Song Facts The original music for ’The Girl From Ipanema’ was composed by Antonio Carlos Jobim with lyrics by Vinicius de Moraes. The pair composed the song in 1962, during a get-together near Rio’s Ipanema beach, in admiration of one of the prettier girls walking by. ’The Girl from Ipanema was recorded in Portuguese immediately after it was written, the authors had no intention of translating it into English. Little did they know that the well-known American sax player Stan Getz was getting ready to introduce their musical style, samba, to a US audience. Getz got the idea from guitarist Charlie Byrd, who toured Brazil the year before. Together, they released “Jazz Samba” in 1962, including a song written by Jobim. It was an immediate success in the States, leaving Americans eager for more. In response to this, Getz brought in Brazilian guitarist João Gilberto to record a new album, “Getz/Gilberto“ on which Gilberto was to sing a few Brazilian classics in Portuguese. But since Gilberto didn’t feel comfortable singing in English, his English-speaking wife Astrud was brought in to sing in English.
