Letra del Tango Adios para siempre

Adiós para siempre, decía su carta
tal vez, algún día, sabrás comprender.
Quizá te atormenten mis cuatro palabras
escritas con llanto, en este papel.
-¡No sé por qué causa se fue de mi lado!,
¡no sé, si es un sueño, o si es realidad!
Parece mentira que a veces la vida
se ensañe con uno con tanta crueldad.

¡Hoy solo!…
Lloro en silencio por ella.
A cuestas
llevando voy mi dolor
y el recuerdo del pasado
se ha metido despiadado
muy adentro del corazón.
¡Quisiera!…
encontrarla en mi camino.
¡Entonces!…
pedirle una explicación.
Pero temo, que me niegue
y me diga, que es mentira
nada hubo entre los dos.

Por eso que a veces, no quiero acordarme
y busco olvidarla, ahogando el dolor.
¡Parece mentira, lo flojo que somos!,
¡las cosas, hermano, que tiene el amor!
Qué triste sin ella, se hace la vida,
¡adiós esperanza, adiós ilusión!
El alma envejece, se siente vencida
y sólo esperamos, el fallo de Dios.

English lyrics of the Tango "Adios para siempre"

“Goodbye forever,” said her letter,
maybe, one day, you’ll understand.
Perhaps my four words will torment you,
written with tears, on this paper.
-I don’t know why she left my side!,
I don’t know if it’s a dream, or if it’s real!
It seems incredible that sometimes life
can be so cruelly overwhelming.

Alone today!…
I cry in silence for her.
Carrying my pain
and the memory of the past
has mercilessly entered
deep into my heart.
I wish!…
to find her on my way.
Then!…
ask for an explanation.
But I fear, she will deny me
and tell me, that it’s a lie,
there was nothing between us.

That’s why sometimes, I don’t want to remember
and I try to forget her, drowning the pain.
It seems incredible, how weak we are!
The things, brother, that love does!
How sad life becomes without her,
goodbye hope, goodbye dreams!
The soul ages, feels defeated,
and we only await, the judgment of God.

Symbolism of Adios para siempre

The symbolism in “Adios para siempre” is deeply entrenched in the motifs of sorrow and despair. Words like “written with tears” evoke a visual potency of grief, whereas phrases such as “It seems a lie that sometimes life torments us with such cruelty” alludes to the existential suffering and the arbitrary nature of fate. The heart is depicted as the central keeper of memories, which cruelly trap the pain deep within, symbolizing how emotional scars are carried internally and continuously affect the person.

Adios para siempre in historic Context

During these times, tango was not only a dance but a means of expressing the collective emotions of society, capturing the soulful melancholy influencers by global uncertainty.
