See what a lovely sight, so full of grace
It's her, the girl who walks by
Swaying so sweetly as she walks to the sea

Girl with the tanned body from the sun of Ipanema
Your swaying is more than poetry
It's the most beautiful thing that I have seen walking by

Ah, why am I so lonely
Ah, why is everything sadness
Ah, the beauty that is
This beauty that isn't for me alone
Who also walks by by herself

Ah, if she only knew
That when she walks by
The world, smiling, fills with grace
Becoming ever more beautiful because of love

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 him

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 him

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, she doesn't see, no she just doesn't see
