Letra del Vals Adiós adiós

Adiós, adiós ensueño de mi vida
Al corazón lo siento desmayar,
Me invade un hondo dolor a mi partida
Y a otras playas me voy para olvidar…
Y a otras playas me voy para olvidar.

Viviré llevando con dolor
La cruz de tus desvíos,
Que tan cruel pusiste
En mis hombros con rencor,
Borrando la amargura del ayer.
Dejaré tan sólo de sufrir,
El día que te olvide sólo a ti
Pero eso nunca he podido conseguir.

Adiós, adiós, qué triste haber amado
Para después tener que abandonar,
Esa esperanza que tanto uno ha soñado
Y a la que cuesta por siempre renunciar…
Y a la que cuesta por siempre renunciar.

Viviré llevando con dolor
La cruz de tus desvíos,
Que tan cruel pusiste
En mis hombros con rencor,
Borrando la amargura del ayer.
Dejaré tan sólo de sufrir,
El día que te olvide sólo a ti
Pero eso nunca he podido conseguir.

Adiós, adiós mujer que en mi camino
Dejó caer la piedra del dolor,
Yo ya me voy a cumplir con mi destino
Sin un reproche y sin guardar rencor…
Sin un reproche y sin guardar rencor.

English lyrics of the Vals "Adiós adiós"

Goodbye, goodbye, dream of my life,
My heart feels faint,
A deep pain invades me as I depart,
And to other shores I go to forget…
And to other shores I go to forget.

I’ll live bearing with pain
The cross of your neglect,
Which you so cruelly placed
On my shoulders with bitterness,
Erasing the bitterness of yesterday.
I’ll only cease to suffer
The day I forget you alone,
But that, I’ve never been able to achieve.

Goodbye, goodbye, how sad to have loved
Only to have to leave later,
That hope one has dreamed of so much,
And which is so hard to give up forever…
And which is so hard to give up forever.

I’ll live bearing with pain
The cross of your neglect,
Which you so cruelly placed
On my shoulders with bitterness,
Erasing the bitterness of yesterday.
I’ll only cease to suffer
The day I forget you alone,
But that, I’ve never been able to achieve.

Goodbye, goodbye, woman who on my path
Dropped the stone of pain,
I now depart to fulfill my destiny,
With no reproach and without holding a grudge…
With no reproach and without holding a grudge.

Story behind the Tango Adiós adiós

In “Adiós adiós,” Alfredo Pelaia encapsulates the poignant farewell of a lover parting ways with his beloved. The lyrics reverberate with a deep sorrow and resignation as the speaker vows to move to ‘other shores’ to forget his past love. This journey away from sorrow to an uncertain future is a central motif, with repeated references suggesting an irrevocable decision.



Symbolism of Adiós adiós

The repeated phrase “Adiós, adiós” symbolizes finality and acceptance. The imagery of carrying ‘the cross of your straying’ symbolizes suffering and burden, connoting deep emotional pain inflicted by betrayal. The ‘stone of pain’ metaphor reinforces the inescapable hurt the speaker feels, enhancing the tragic tone.



Adiós adiós in historic Context

Recorded in 1955 in Argentina, “Adiós adiós” reflects postwar sentiments where tango often depicted personal losses and broader societal disillusionments. This period saw a deeper exploration of emotional and psychological themes in tango lyrics, moving away from the earlier, more festive tango of the pre-war era.
