Jobim: Corcovado, "Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars" - Quatuor Ébène, Stacey Kent

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

Um cantinho, violo

Esse amor, uma cancao

Pra fazer feliz j que se ama

Muita calma pra pensar

E ter tempo pra sonhar

Da janela v-se o Corcovado

O Redentor, que lindo

Quero a vida sempre assim

Com voce perto de mim

Ate o apagar da velha chama

E eu, que era triste

Descrente desse mundo

Ao encontrar voce eu conheci

O que a felicidade, meu amor

Quero a vida sempre assim

Com voce perto de mim

At o apagar da velha chama

E eu, que era triste

Descrente desse mundo

Ao encontrar voce eu conheci

O que a felicidade, meu amor

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

A corner, guitar

This love, a song

To make you happy since you love yourself

very calm to think

And having time to dream

From the window you can see the Corcovado

The Redeemer, how beautiful

I want life always like this

With you close to me

Until the extinguishing of the old flame

And I, who was sad

disbeliever of this world

When I met you, I met

What happiness, my love

I want life always like this

With you close to me

Until the extinguishing of the old flame

And I, who was sad

disbeliever of this world

When I met you, I met

What happiness, my love
