Letra del Tango Cualquier cosa

Cualquier cosa resultaste
para que un hombre derecho
tu maldad tomara a pecho
entregándose al ‘splin’.
Con tu acción me comprobaste
lo que de ti suponía
que tu amor me sonreía
para lograr otro fin.

Loca mía,
alma cruel y atravesada
por tu artera puñalada
toda mi dicha perdí.
Quién diría
que tu pensamiento terco
te volviera flor de cerco
y no encanto para mí.

Tus divinos ojos verdes
mezcla de mar y de cielo
han dejado un desconsuelo
que amargo mi corazón.
Quiera Dios que no te acuerdes
de volver ya que te fuiste
porque el daño que me hiciste
no merece mi perdón.

English lyrics of the Tango "Cualquier cosa "

You turned out to be quite the thing,
for a good man to take your malice to heart,
surrendering to despair.
With your actions, you confirmed
what I suspected of you:
that your love was smiling
to achieve another end.

My crazy love,
cruel soul, wayward,
through your cunning stab,
I lost all my happiness.
Who would have thought
your stubborn mind
would turn you into a hedge flower,
and not a charm for me?

Your divine green eyes,
a mix of sea and sky,
have left a desolation
that embittered my heart.
May God prevent you from remembering
to return now that you’ve gone,
because the damage you’ve done
does not deserve my forgiveness.

Story behind the Tango Cualquier cosa

“Cualquier cosa,” which translates to “Anything” in English, conveys a narrative of deep betrayal and heartbreak. Through its vivid imagery and emotional lyrics, it captures the listener’s attention by narrating the pain of being deceived by a loved one. The protagonist speaks directly to this person, expressing their disillusionment and regret over the truth that has been revealed. The central theme revolves around the transformation of something once perceived as beautiful and enchanting into something hurtful and repellent, akin to a “flor de cerco”, a plant that, despite its beauty, might grow along boundaries and be considered ordinary or invasive.



Symbolism of Cualquier cosa

The lyric’s rich use of symbolism enhances its emotional depth. The phrase “flor de cerco” symbolically portrays how something seemingly charming can turn out to be common and harmful. The “divinos ojos verdes” (divine green eyes), mixing sea and sky, initially depict a mesmerizing allure that later only brings “desconsuelo” (despair), illustrating the disguising nature of appearances. The use of sharp contrasts between sacred (divine, sky) and the profane (betrayal, pain) deeply enriches the narrative, emphasizing the protagonist’s turmoil.



Cualquier cosa in Historic Context

Written in Argentina, a land where Tango originated, “Cualquier cosa” carries the quintessential Tango spirit—a blend of passion, melancholy, and disillusionment. Tango often explores themes of love, betrayal, and nostalgia, mirroring the complex social-cultural fabric of early 20th-century Argentina, when urbanization, immigration, and social changes were shaping the nation’s identity. This Tango, through its vivid portrayal of personal betrayal, perhaps mirrors the broader societal betrayals felt during times of rapid change.
