Lyrics Translation of the Vals De vuelta

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’m returning,
only one who suffered absence
knows what it’s like to return.
Love… love…
from afar
I pray tirelessly on paths
knowing they lead me back to you.

I asked the sky for a star,
the ceibo offered me a flower,
the wind its whisper of quenas
and the good herb its fragrant scent.
The cloud lent me its lace,
the evening its gray poem
and the valley its finest view
to bring back to you.

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

Story behind the Tango De vuelta

“De vuelta” emerges as a poignant exploration of longing and the bittersweet nature of returning to a loved one after an absence. The tango captures the deep emotions associated with separation and reunion, where the protagonist reflects on the pain endured during the absence and the joy and anticipation of being reunited. The lyrics reveal a profound yearning for love, expressed through a heartfelt plea to the heavens and the natural world for blessings and guidance on the journey back to the beloved.

Symbolism of De vuelta

The tango is rich in symbolism, with nature serving as a crucial metaphor for the emotions and experiences described in the lyrics. Key phrases like “el ceibo me ofreció la flor” and “el viento su rumor de quenas” evoke a sense of the natural world’s intimate involvement in the protagonist’s journey. The “ceibo,” Argentina’s national flower, symbolizes beauty and resilience, paralleling the enduring love that persists despite distance. Similarly, the “rumor de quenas” signifies a musical whisper from the wind, an auditory connection to the loved one that transcends physical separation. The use of “nub”e and “poema en gris” also adds to the mood of longing, painting a somber yet hopeful picture of nostalgia and love’s enduring presence.

De vuelta in historic Context

Written in Buenos Aires in 1953, “De vuelta” reflects the culture and sentiment of post-war Argentina, a time marked by political upheaval and social change. The longing for stability and connection during such a turbulent period resonates deeply in the lyrics. Buenos Aires, known for its vibrant tango scene, serves as the backdrop for this emotional exploration, where tango was more than just music—it was a way of life, a means of expressing the complex emotions tied to love, loss, and identity. In this context, the song captures not only personal longing but also a collective yearning for reunion and harmony in the midst of societal uncertainty.

Carlos Lazzari was an influential tango composer and bandoneon player, recognized for his contributions to the evolution of tango music in Argentina. His works, including “De vuelta,” are celebrated for capturing the essence of Argentine culture and emotion.
