Letra del Tango Corazón que me maltratas

Me lastima con un cruel presentimiento
El cobarde corazón sin un motivo,
Porque todo es en mi vida un cielo abierto
Sin más nubes que esta gris preocupación.

De repente porque sí, siento un miedo de morir
Que me llena de inquietud y de zozobra,
Porque nunca tuvo nadie, tantas ganas de vivir
Como yo, que con su amor soy tan feliz.

Corazón que me maltratas,
Corazón atormentado,
No es posible que a la dicha,
Si es por débil y es porfía
Me contagie tu aprensión.

Corazón que me maltratas,
Mi cobarde corazón,
No me robes la alegría,
Feliz de cada día
Con tu temor…

English lyrics of the Tango "Corazón que me maltratas"

A cruel premonition hurts me,
My cowardly heart without a cause,
For everything in my life is an open sky
With no clouds but this gray worry.

Suddenly, for no reason, I feel a fear of dying
That fills me with unease and anxiety,
Because no one ever had, such a desire to live
As I do, who am so happy with her love.

Heart that mistreats me,
Tormented heart,
It’s not possible that to bliss,
If it’s through weakness and persistence
Your apprehension infects me.

Heart that mistreats me,
My cowardly heart,
Do not steal my joy,
Happy every day
With your fear…

In “Corazón que me maltratas,” Carlos Bahr delves into the emotional conflict between happiness in love and an inexplicable sense of doom.

This internal battle reflects a deeper exploration of anxiety and the fragility of human happiness.

Symbolism of Corazón que me maltratas

The heart is a central symbol in this tango, portrayed as something that simultaneously feels and inflicts pain. Phrases like “El cobarde corazón sin un motivo” and “Corazón que me maltratas” suggest the heart as an entity with its own will, tormenting the narrator without reason. This personification of the heart adds a layer of drama, highlighting the internal fight between reason and emotion. The contrast between the imagery of an “open sky” and the “grey concern” symbolizes the sudden shift from happiness to anxiety, which is a frequent motif in tango lyrics, reflecting the dance’s melancholic undertone.
