Verse 1
Um cantinho e um violão
A corner and a guitar
Este amor, uma canção
This love, a song
Pra fazer feliz a quem se ama
To make those you love happy
Muita calma pra pensar
Too calm to think
E ter tempo pra sonhar
And have time to dream
Verse 2
Da janela vê-se o Corcovado
From the window you can see Corcovado
O Redentor que lindo
The Redeemer is beautiful
Quero a vida sempre assim com você perto de mim
I want life always like this with you close to me
Até o apagar da velha chama
Until the old flame goes out
Chorus
E eu que era triste
And I was sad
Descrente deste mundo
Unbeliever of this world
Ao encontrar você eu conheci
When I found you I met
O que é felicidade meu amor
What is happiness my love
