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 

 Quero a vida sempre assim (I want life to always be like this.)  [bad word] vocé perto de mim (With you right next to me) 
 Até o apagar da velha chama. ('till the love ends.)

 eu que era triste (And I who was sad) 
 Descrente deste mundo (Having lost faith in this world) 
 Ao encontra você eu conheci (I found you and then I knew) 
 O que é felicidade, meu amor (what happiness is, my love )

 This is where I want to be 
 Here with you so close to me
 Until the final flicker of life's ember.

 I who was lost and lonely believing life was only
 bitter tragic joke, have found with you,
 The meaning of existence, oh my love.
