O Barquinho (Little Boat)

O Barquinho — (My Little Boat) 1961
Bossa nova song by Roberto Menescal and Ronaldo Bôscoli.

My little boat is like a note
Bouncing merrily along, hear it splashing up a song
The sails are white, the sky is bright
Heading out into the blue, with a crew of only two
Where we can share Love’s salty air
On a little paradise that’s afloat
Not a care have we, in my little boat
The wind is still, we feel the thrill
Of a voyage heaven-bound, though we only drift around
Warmed by the sun, two hearts as one
Beating with enchanted bliss, melting in each other’s kiss
When daylight ends and slyly sends
Little stars that twinkle brightly above
It’s goodbye to my little boat of love
