Letra del Tango Bailarina de tango

De satén y color negro, la pollera.
De charol y tacos altos, los zapatos.
Dibujando garabatos,
del ritmo que se adueña
tu estampa de porteña.

Tu conoces el secreto de los tangos
y es por eso que los bailas como nadie.
Y en los brazos que te abrazas,
que mística que pasas,
danzando en el salón.

Sacerdotisa del tango,
sacerdotisa sentida.
Rito es la danza en tu vida
y el tango que tu amas
te quema en su llama.

Sacerdotisa del tango,
que en los salones de rango,
bailas en brazos de un hombre
que luce el renombre
de gran bailarín.

English lyrics of the Tango "Bailarina de tango"

In black satin, your skirt.
In patent leather and high heels, the shoes.
Sketching squiggles,
of the rhythm that takes over,
your figure so porteña.

You know the secrets of the tangos
that’s why you dance them like no one else.
And in the arms that embrace you,
what a mystical passage,
dancing in the ballroom.

Priestess of the tango,
heartfelt priestess.
Ritual is dance in your life,
and the tango you love
burns you with its flame.

Priestess of the tango,
in the high-class ballrooms,
you dance in the arms of a man
who carries the fame
of a great dancer.

Story behind the Tango Bailarina de tango

The lyrics of “Bailarina de tango” vividly portray the elegance and mysticism of a tango dancer. Dressed in a black satin skirt and patent leather high-heeled shoes, the dancer embodies the essence of Buenos Aires’ culture. As she dances, her knowledge and passion for the tango are evident, marking her as an unrivaled performer.

Symbolism of Bailarina de tango

The symbolism in “Bailarina de tango” centers around the transformational power of the dance. Tango acts as a metaphysical force, “burning” within her, which implies a deep passion and dedication. The dancer is described not merely as a performer but as a “priestess” of tango, elevating her status to that of a guardian or a spiritual mediator of the art form. This language elevates the tango from a dance to a rite, encapsulating its impact on both the individual and cultural level.

The tango, dating back to the late 19th century in Argentina, has always been more than just a dance. By 1951, tango had become a symbol of Argentine national identity and an expression of the deeper emotional undercurrents within Argentinian society. “Bailarina de tango”, composed at this time, embodies this cultural depth, reflecting both a yearning for the glamorous past and a recognition of the individual stories within the dance halls of Buenos Aires. It is a homage to the dedication of the dancers and the cultural reverence for tango in Argentina.
