Carta Ao Tom 74 Lyrics in English Vinicius de Moraes , Toquinho, Quarteto Em Cy
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Carta Ao Tom 74 by Vinicius de Moraes from Portuguese to English.
Rua Nascimento Silva, cento e sete
Nascimento Silva street, one hundred and seven
E você ensinando pra Elizete
And you teaching Elizete
As canções de canção do amor demais
The songs of too much love song
Lembra que tempo feliz, ai que saudade
Remember that happy time, oh how I miss it
Ipanema era só felicidade
Ipanema was only happiness
Era como se o amor doesse em paz
It was as if love hurt peacefully
Nossa famosa garota nem sabia
Our famous girl didn't even know
A que ponto a cidade turvaria
To what extent the city would cloud
Este Rio de amor que se perdeu
This Rio of lost love
Mesmo a tristeza da gente era mais bela
Even our sadness was more beautiful
E além disso se via da janela
And besides, from the window one could see
Um cantinho de céu e o Redentor
A corner of sky and the Redeemer
É, meu amigo, só resta uma certeza
Yes, my friend, only one certainty remains
É preciso acabar com essa tristeza
We must end this sadness
É preciso inventar de novo o amor
We must reinvent love
Rua Nascimento Silva, cento e sete
Nascimento Silva street, one hundred and seven
E você ensinando pra Elizete
And you teaching Elizete
As canções de canção do amor demais
The songs of too much love song
Lembra que tempo feliz, ai que saudade
Remember that happy time, oh how I miss it
Ipanema era só felicidade
Ipanema was only happiness
Era como se o amor doesse em paz
It was as if love hurt peacefully
Nossa famosa garota nem sabia
Our famous girl didn't even know
A que ponto a cidade turvaria
To what extent the city would cloud
Este Rio de amor que se perdeu
This Rio of lost love
Mesmo a tristeza da gente era mais bela
Even our sadness was more beautiful
E além disso se via da janela
And besides, from the window one could see
Um cantinho de céu e o Redentor
A corner of sky and the Redeemer
É, meu amigo, só resta uma certeza
Yes, my friend, only one certainty remains
É preciso acabar com essa tristeza
We must end this sadness
É preciso inventar de novo o amor
We must reinvent love
