The sand is so fine
That the time slides through
Under bouncing beach umbrellas,

Waves are happy
And draw salted arabesques
On greeting women's dreams,

Here celebrates Brazil,
Laughters share the sun
As a worship of abondant peace,

As a bright foam
On the slow skin of a girl
My sweat falls asleep.

Each and every line is a hymn to that "joie de vivre" which Copacabana expresses so intensely.

Most beautiful and uplifting, dear Yann!

Love,
Margherita
