Só Vendo Que Beleza
Moreno Veloso
Just Seeing What Beauty
I have a little house over in Marambaia
Right by the beach, just seeing what beauty.
There's a vine that in the springtime
Gets all flowered up with princess earrings.
When summer comes, I sit on the porch,
Grab my guitar and start to play.
My brunette, always in a good mood,
Sits beside me, also singing along.
When the afternoon comes, a flock of swallows
Pass by in a swarm, making it feel like summer.
And in the woods, a thrush sings a beautiful melody
To cheer up my heart.
At six in the evening, the chapel bell
Chimes the Ave Maria
And the moon rises behind the mountains
Announcing that the day is done.
