Só Vendo Que Beleza (Marambaia)
Elis Regina
Just Seeing What Beauty (Marambaia)
I have a little house there in Marambaia
It's by the beach, just seeing what beauty
It has a vine that in the spring
Is all blooming with princess earrings
When summer comes, I sit on the porch
I grab my guitar and start playing
My dark-skinned man who is always in a good mood
Sits beside me and starts singing
When the afternoon comes, a flock of swallows
Flies in a swarm, making summer
And there in the woods, the thrush chirps
Beautiful melody to cheer up my heart
At six o'clock, the chapel bell
Rings the Ave Maria chimes
The Moon rises behind the mountains
Announcing that the day is over
