Bossa Nova, Freetude Idea 65, Freedom Idea, Freedom Attitude

I wrote about love yesterday.
How did I forget Bossa Nova?
Bossa Nova = Love
Fathers: Tom Jobim, Vinicius de Moraes and João Gilberto.
Mother: Brazil
Today, I heard the song "Ligia": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H70QHSTP-uM
Goosebumps… So I translated it.
Magic! Tom played with opposites to declare his love.

Ligia
Tom Jobim
Translated by: Mary Tude

I've never dreamed about you
I’ve never been to the movies
I don't like samba. I don't go to Ipanema
I don't like the rain neither the sun
And when I called you... I hung up, wrong number
I don't even know your name
I forgot in my piano the silliness of love
That I wanted to tell you, no… Ligia, Ligia
I never wanted to have you by my side
On a weekend
A cold beer in Copacabana
Walk on the beach to Leblon
And when I fell in love
It was just an illusion. I torn your name
I made a samba song from the love lies
That I learned from you
Yeah…Ligia Ligia
You get close to me
With your strange manners and I say yes
But your golden eyes
Frighten me more than a sunny day
Yeah…Ligia Ligia
And when you hold me
In your serene arms, I will surrender
But your brown eyes
Frighten me more than a sun ray
Yeah…Ligia Ligia

Idea: A compilation of old Bossa Nova songs with the English translation.
