Letra del Vals De vuelta

Amor… amor…
de vuelta voy,
sólo el que penó de ausencia
sabe lo que es ir de vuelta.
Amor… amor…
desde el confín
ruego sin desmayos y en senderos
sabiendo que por ellos vuelvo a ti.

Al cielo le pedí la estrella,
el ceibo me ofreció la flor,
el viento su rumor de quenas
y la yerba buena su fragante olor.
La nube me prestó su encaje,
la tarde su poema en gris
y el valle su mejor paisaje
para llevarte a ti.

English lyrics of the Vals "De vuelta"

Love… love…
I return once more,
only those who have suffered absence
know what it’s like to return again.
Love… love…
from the end
I pray tirelessly on trails
knowing that through them I return to you.

To the sky, I asked for the star,
the ceibo offered me its flower,
the wind its whisper of flutes
and the sweet grass its fragrant scent.
The cloud lent me its lace,
the evening its poem in gray
and the valley its finest landscape
to bring to you.

De vuelta is a Tango written by and composed by Carlos Lazzari.

Story behind the Tango De vuelta

De vuelta, created in the vibrant city of Buenos Aires in 1947, reflects the poignant journey of returning to a loved one or a cherished place after a period of absence. The central theme revolves around the longing and emotional depth experienced during a separation and the overwhelming joy and relief of a reunion. The phrase “sólo el que penó de ausencia sabe lo que es ir de vuelta” captures the intense feelings of longing and understanding that only those who have endured separation can truly grasp.

Symbolism of De vuelta

Throughout the lyrics, rich symbolism and evocative language enhance the emotional landscape of this tango. Nature serves as a powerful metaphor for love and longing. The “estrella” (star), “flor” (flower), and “encaje” (lace) symbolize hope, beauty, and delicacy, respectively. These elements are offered by the natural world, emphasizing the interconnectedness and profound support that nature provides. The elements of nature are personalized gifts that the narrator collects “para llevarte a ti,” demonstrating a yearning to share beauty and tenderness with the beloved. Key phrases like “el viento su rumor de quenas” (the wind its murmur of quenas), where “quenas” refers to Andean flutes, evoke sound as an emotional conduit, whispering memories and stories. The “yerba buena” and its “fragante olor” (fragrant smell) signify comfort and familiarity, a sensory reminder of home and love.

De vuelta in historic Context

In the post-World War II era, Argentina saw significant cultural evolution, with Buenos Aires serving as a hub for tango music and dance. In 1947, the emotional and cultural tapestry of Buenos Aires was rich with the migration narratives and personal stories of return and reunion, often due to economic or political migration. “De vuelta” resonates with this context, where many longed for homecomings, making the theme of returning universal. The tango’s emotive style and narrative can be seen as a reflection of a society eager to reconnect with roots, loved ones, and the familiar warmth of their culture.

Carlos Lazzari was renowned as a skilled bandoneonist and composer, contributing significantly to the traditional tango repertoire of Argentina. His work embodies the soulful and passionate essence of tango.
