Corcovado
STAN GETZ JOAO GILBERTO & ANTONIO CARLOS JOBIM Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
Oh, how lovely
Um cantinho, um violĆ£o
Esse amor, uma canĆ§Ć£o
Pra fazer feliz
A quem se ama
Muita calma pra pensar
E ter tempo pra sonhar
Da janela vĆŖ-se o Corcovado
O Redentor, que lindo
Quero a vida sempre assim
Com vocĆŖ perto de mim
AtƩ o apagar da velha chama
E eu, que era triste
Descrente desse mundo
Ao encontrar vocĆŖ eu conheci
O que Ć© felicidade, meu amor
Quero a vida sempre assim
Com vocĆŖ perto de mim
AtƩ o apagar da velha chama
E eu, que era triste
Descrente desse mundo
Ao encontrar vocĆŖ eu conheci
O que Ć© a felicidade, meu amor

Quiet nights of quiet stars, quiet chords from my guitar
The peaceful atmosphere of the night is complemented by soothing music from my guitar.
Floating in the silence that surrounds us
The absence of external sounds creates a serene environment for us to drift away in.
Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams,
Our innermost thoughts and aspirations are tranquil and undisturbed.
Quiet walks by quiet streams, and a window
Soothing walks by shimmering streams and gazing through a window brings about a sense of calmness.
Looking on the mountains and the sea
The scenic view of the sea and mountains is breathtaking.
How lovely! this is where I want to be
The beauty of the surroundings makes us want to stay in this place forever.
Here, with you so close to me,
Being with you in this scenic place is making everything blissful.
Untill the final flicker of lifes ember
We wish to remain together until the very end of our lives.
I who was lost and lonely, believing life was only
I used to feel miserable and alone, with the opinion that life was futile.
A bitter tragic joke, have found with you
But with you, everything seems to make sense, and life appears hopeful and joyful.
The meaning of existence oh, my love
I have found the purpose of my life and my reason for being in you, my love.

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

Esse amor, uma canĆ§Ć£o
Pra fazer feliz
A quem se ama
Muita calma pra pensar

Da janela vĆŖ-se o Corcovado
O Redentor
