Beautiful song. Below is a portion of a singable English translation by Joel Sattler
TO HAPPINESS lyrics by Joel Sattler
Where sadness never ends
think happiness my friend
Like a feather flying on the wind
It floats above the clouds so dark and long
It only lasts a while
When it should go for miles
It needs to find a breeze forever strong
... To see the rest Google "A Felicidade authorsden"

One of the most beatuful lyrics of the brazilian music. It´s worth to learn portuguese just to understand the brazilian poetry. The carnival is coming and we know the happiness is over at the wednesday, like the lyrics says.

"Falem baixo, por favor! "kkkkkkkkkkk



Is there anything better than classic brazillian jazz? I used to be a big fan of classical music but after hearing the bitter sweet strains of the bossa nova nothing I've heard before it seems to matter. I'm forever longing for this music. It's as if I'm caught between meloncholy and joy when listening. The Brazillian people must be an incredibly hopeful and humanitarian lot if the music reveals anything about their character all. While I am inspired I must learn portuguese.
