Letra del Tango Asi se canta

Quiero volcar en mi canto la emoción que llevo adentro,
la canción es sentimiento al brotar del corazón.
Quiero cantar al amor, al amor dulce que nace
y al dolor que se deshace en la angustia de mi voz.
Quiero cantar la alegría y las penas de mi pueblo,
que sus penas son las mías, como es mía su emoción.
Y yo, que he sufrido tanto, quiero cantarle a la vida
que me dio tantos encantos, como así también dolor.

¡Así… así se canta!…
Con la emoción en los labios
y un sollozo en la garganta,
cuando hiere algún querer.
¡Así… así se canta!…
A la madre que adoramos,
a la gloria que aspiramos
y al amor de una mujer.
Poniendo el alma en la voz
y en la voz un “no sé qué”
hecho nudo en la garganta.
¡Porque así, así se canta,
con la emoción de Gardel!

Quiero volcar en mi canto la emoción que llevo adentro,
la canción es sentimiento al brotar del corazón.
Quiero cantar a la flor, a la flor de mis anhelos
y a la gloria de ese cielo que soñé para los dos.
Quiero evocar esas horas, dulces horas de mi vida
y no sé por qué se anida en mi pecho un gran pesar.
Será que he vivido tanto que el recuerdo de esos días
pone gris melancolía en mi voz sentimental.

English lyrics of the Tango "Asi se canta"

I want to pour into my song the emotion that I carry inside,
the song is feeling as it springs from the heart.
I want to sing to love, the sweet love that is born
and to the pain that melts away in the anguish of my voice.
I want to sing the joy and the sorrows of my people,
for their sorrows are mine, as is their emotion.
And I, who have suffered so much, want to sing to life
that gave me so many charms, as well as pain.

Like this… this is how you sing!…
With emotion on your lips
and a sob in your throat,
when love wounds.
Like this… this is how you sing!…
To the mother we adore,
to the glory we aspire
and to the love of a woman.
Putting soul into the voice
and in the voice a “je ne sais quoi”
made knot in the throat.
Because like this, this is how you sing,
with the emotion of Gardel!

I want to pour into my song the emotion that I carry inside,
the song is feeling as it springs from the heart.
I want to sing to the flower, the flower of my yearnings
and to the glory of that sky I dreamed for us both.
I want to evoke those hours, sweet hours of my life
and I don’t know why a great sorrow nests in my chest.
Maybe because I’ve lived so much that the memory of those days
puts a gray melancholy in my sentimental voice.
