Letra del Tango De igual a igual

De tanto y tanto quererla
me ha entrado miedo,
miedo de perderla.
No puedo darme reposo,
estoy enamorado
y estoy celoso.
Mezcla de dulzura y de tormento
es este amor que en mi alma siento.
De tanto y tanto quererla
me ha entrado miedo
de no verla más.

A Dios le pido
que perdone mi egoísmo
pero quisiera
que sienta ella lo mismo,
que cuando esté lejos de mí
sienta un vacío
y necesite estar cerquita mío.
Que también sienta
en sus ansias de quererme
el mismo miedo,
el miedo de perderme;
que tenga celos
de mi amor…
Que no será para su mal,
así estaremos
de igual a igual.

English lyrics of the Tango "De igual a igual"

From loving her so much and so deeply
fear has crept in,
fear of losing her.
I can’t find rest,
I’m in love,
and I’m jealous.
A mix of sweetness and torment
is this love I feel in my soul.
From loving her so much and so dearly
fear has set in
of never seeing her again.

I pray to God
to forgive my selfishness,
yet I wish
that she feels the same,
that when she’s away from me,
she feels an emptiness
and needs to be close to me.
That she also feels,
in her longing to love me,
the same fear,
the fear of losing me;
that she feels jealous
of my love…
It won’t be to her harm,
thus we will be
on equal ground.
