Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars

Listen! the wind is rising,
and the air is wild with leaves,
We have had our summer evenings,
now for October eves!

Corcovado / Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars

Written by
Antonio Carlos Jobim
(25 Jan 1927 – 08 Dec 1994)

English lyrics written by Gene Lees, 1962
(b. 08 Feb 1928)

Um cantinho, um violão
Esse amor, uma canção
Pra fazer feliz a quem se ama

Muita calma pra pensar
E ter tempo pra sonhar
Da janela vê-se o Corcovado
O Redentor, que lindo!

Quero a vida sempre assim
Com você perto de mim
Até o apagar da velha chama

E eu que era triste
Descrente desse mundo
Ao encontrar você eu conheci
O que é 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.
Climbing hills where lovers go to watch the world below together.

We will live eternally in this mood of reverie
Away from all the earthly cares around us
My world was dull, each minute, until I found you in it
And all at once, the happiness I knew
Became these quiet nights of loving you.

We will live eternally in this mood of reverie
Away from all the earthly cares around us
My world was dull, each minute, until I found you in it
And all at once, the happiness I knew
Became these quiet nights of loving you.
