Letra del Vals Amores de estudiante

Hoy un juramento,
mañana una traición,
amores de estudiante
flores de un día son.

En unos labios ardientes
dejar una promesa
apasionadamente.
Quiero calmar los enojos
de aquellos claros ojos
siempre mintiendo amor.

Por un mirar que ruega
perder la quietud.
Mujercitas sonrientes
que juran virtud.
Es una boca loca
la que hoy me provoca.
Hay un collar de amores
en mi juventud.

Fantasmas del pasado,
perfumes de ayer,
que evocaré doliente
plateando mi sien.
Bandadas de recuerdos
de un tiempo querido,
lejano y florido
que no olvidaré.

Hoy un juramento,
mañana una traición,
amores de estudiante
flores de un día son.

English lyrics of the Vals "Amores de estudiante"

Today a pledge,
Tomorrow a betrayal,
Students’ love affairs
are daily flowers.

On fervent lips
leave a promise
passionately.
I want to soothe the angers
of those bright eyes
always lying about love.

For a pleading gaze,
lose tranquility.
Smiling young women
who swear their virtue.
It’s a crazy mouth
that tempts me today.
There’s a string of romances
in my youth.

Ghosts of the past,
yesterday’s scents,
that I will mournfully evoke
as my temples go gray.
Flocks of memories
from a beloved,
distant, and blossomed time
that I won’t forget.

Today a pledge,
Tomorrow a betrayal,
Students’ love affairs
are daily flowers.

Amores de estudiante by Alfredo Le Pera, Mario Battistella

Amores de estudiante is a Tango written by Alfredo Le Pera, Mario Battistella and composed by Carlos Gardel.



Story behind the Tango Amores de estudiante

“Amores de estudiante,” or “Student Loves” in English, captures the fleeting and ephemeral nature of youthful romance. The lyrics describe a pattern of swearing eternal loyalty one day and betraying it the next, implying the inconsistency and volatility of young love. This theme of transient relationships is likened to flowers that bloom and perish within a day, highlighting the quick passage from infatuation to disinterest among young lovers.



Symbolism of Amores de estudiante

The song extensively uses floral imagery to symbolize the impermanence and delicate beauty of young love. Phrases like “flowers of a day” connote both the vivid, intense beauty of love and its inevitable decay. Additionally, references to “phantoms of the past” and “flocks of memories” invoke nostalgia, suggesting a yearning for the vivid yet fleeting moments of youth. These elements serve to both romanticize and mourn the passing of these ephemeral relationships.



Amores de estudiante in historic Context

The year 1946 in Argentina was a time of significant political and social change, which might cast the fleeting love stories in a similar light of transition and uncertainty. The juxtaposition of intense passion with rapid betrayal could parallel the period’s political instability. The song then not only becomes a story about love but also subtly reflects the societal shifts occurring at the time, where allegiances and motivations were constantly in flux.



Alfredo Le Pera, Mario Battistella

Alfredo Le Pera and Mario Battistella were prolific figures in the tango scene, notably collaborating with the legendary Carlos Gardel, whose music encapsulated the spirit of their era in Argentine culture.
