The Girl From Ipanema

The poem describes a man watching a beautiful young woman from Ipanema as she walks to the sea each day. He is in love with her but sad because she does not notice him or return his affection, instead looking straight ahead. Her graceful walk is compared to a samba dance that enchants all who see her pass by.

The Girl From Ipanema

Oh, but I watch her so sadly


Tom Jobim How can I tell her I love her?
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
But each day when she walks to the sea
Tall and tanned and young and lovely She looks straight ahead not at me
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, each one she passes
Tall and tanned and young and lovely
goes: A-a-ah!
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes I smile, but she
When she walks she's like a samba that doesn't see
Swings so cool and sways so gentle, She just doesn't see
That when she passes, each one she passes No, she doesn't see
goes: A-a-ah!

Oh, but I watch her so sadly


The Girl From Ipanema How can I tell her I love her?
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
Tom Jobim But each day when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead not at me

Tall and tanned and young and lovely


The girl from Ipanema goes walking Tall and tanned and young and lovely
And when she passes, each one she passes The girl from Ipanema goes walking
goes: A-a-ah! And when she passes I smile, but she
doesn't see
She just doesn't see
When she walks she's like a samba that No, she doesn't see
Swings so cool and sways so gentle,
That when she passes, each one she passes
goes: A-a-ah!
