A Menina da Janela Lyrics Translation in English

Sentada na janela eu via aquela menina

Sitting by the window, I saw that girl

Distraída

Distracted

Nem percebeu minha presença do jeito que estava a pensar na vida

She didn't even notice my presence, lost in her thoughts about life

Depois de algum tempo assim, ela me olhou

After some time like that, she looked at me

Meu coração bateu forte

My heart beat strongly

Eu senti uma onda de calor apesar do vento norte.

I felt a wave of heat despite the north wind

Fiquei pouco a pouco tentando disfarçar

Little by little, I tried to disguise

Desviando o meu olhar

Diverting my gaze

Mas uma força cósmica me levou até lá

But a cosmic force took me there

Queria conhece-la melhor

I wanted to get to know her better

Pois naquele momento

Because at that moment

Eu sabia

I knew

Que aquela menina era tudo que eu mais queria.

That girl was everything I wanted the most

Ficamos na mesma janela a conversar sem perceber

We stayed at the same window, talking without realizing

Que o tempo passava e a noite chegava

That time was passing, and night was arriving

E agente nem queria saber

And we didn't even want to know

Nascia assim um grande amor

Thus, a great love was born

Que se tornou o mais belo da terra

Which became the most beautiful on earth

Sou tão feliz porque eu tenho o coração

I am so happy because I have the heart

Da menina da janela.

Of the girl from the window
