Letra del Vals Aroma de amor

Aroma de un amor
Que mi emoción va dibujando,
Aroma de un amor
Que vi llegar sólo soñando;
Pensar que has de volcar
En mi vivir amargo,
La luz de un corazón
Hecha canción para mí.

Anoche no dormí
Y sin querer soñé despierto,
Mi anhelo de cariño
Febril te buscaba;
Y luego en su rumor
La noche me besaba,
Pidiéndole al Señor
Un milagro de amor.

Te escucho muy lejana
Y vibra mi ilusión,
Suspiran las fontanas
Y gime mi canción;
Quisiera que las horas
Me traigan con la aurora,
Como una flor sonora
El eco de tu voz.

Quisiera que tus ojos
Por mí, llorando estén,
Y así que se agigante
La fuerza de mi fe;
Quisiera que tus labios
Lejanos y tan fríos,
Repitan con los míos
Que me has de querer.

English lyrics of the Vals "Aroma de amor"

Scent of a love
That my emotion sketches out,
Scent of a love
That only in dreams did I see approach;
To think you’re to pour
Into my bitter life,
The light of a heart
Turned into a song for me.

Last night I did not sleep
And unwillingly, I dreamt awake,
My craving for affection
Feverishly searched for you;
And then in its whisper
The night kissed me,
Asking the Lord
For a miracle of love.

I hear you from afar
And my hope resonates,
The fountains sigh
And my song moans;
I wish the hours
Would bring with the dawn,
Like a resonant flower,
The echo of your voice.

I wish that your eyes
For me, would be crying,
And thus may the strength
Of my faith grow immense;
I wish that your lips,
Distant and so cold,
Repeat with mine
That you will love me.

Aroma de amor by Carlos Waiss

Aroma de amor is a Tango written by Carlos Waiss and composed by Román Juri.



Story behind the Tango Aroma de amor

The lyrics of “Aroma de amor” paint a vivid picture of a love that is deeply emotive yet distant, infused with longing and brimming with hope. Carlos Waiss communicates the sheer magic and pain of unrequited or dreamlike love through this tango, articulating a romance that exists largely in the realm of passion and dreams, rather than in reality. This poignant theme of longing is encapsulated in the night’s whispers and the fervent prayers for a miracle of love.



Symbolism of Aroma de amor

The aroma in “Aroma de amor” symbolizes an intangible yet powerful presence of love that fills the air, essentially painting love as a scent that can be felt even in its absence. Waiss uses vivid imagery such as “la luz de un corazón hecha canción” (the light of a heart made song), symbolizing how love transforms inner emotions into something as beautiful and expressive as a song. He also speaks of landscapes interacting with his sentiments, where even the fountains sigh and the night itself kisses him, suggesting that his surrounding environment echoes his inner emotional turmoil and desires.



Aroma de amor in historic Context

Created in 1946, shortly after World War II, “Aroma de amor” arises in an era marked by reconstruction and intense emotional rediscovery in Argentina. The tango, inherently a dance and music genre filled with expressive depth, serves here as a reflection of an era’s collective emotional state—oscillating between hope and melancholy. The references to prayers for miracles and impassioned pleas exemplify a universal craving for healing and affection, a sentiment likely widespread in the post-war context.
