Deja el mundo como está is a Tango written by Rodolfo Sciammarella and composed by Rodolfo Biagi.
“Deja el mundo como está” translates to “Leave the world as it is” in English. The lyrics portray the inner dialogue and criticism towards a disillusioned person who has squandered their well-being and blames the world for their misfortunes. The central theme revolves around the futility of trying to change the world to fit one’s dissatisfaction, suggesting instead a self-transformation and acceptance of life’s inherent ups and downs.
The tango uses vivid imagery to express the frustration with individuals who complain about the state of the world yet do nothing constructive to change their circumstances. Phrases like “Le queres poner rueditas… ¿Dónde lo queres llevar?” which means “You want to put little wheels on it… Where do you want to take it?” symbolically questions the aimlessness and unreasonable expectations of the person. This mirrors the broader societal attitudes of blaming external circumstances instead of fostering personal growth and responsibility.
The Tango was written and recorded on March 14, 1940, in Argentina, a time of political and social upheaval globally, including the lead-up to the Second World War. This context is essential as it reflects the skepticism and tiredness of societal complaints without actionable change, which Sciammarella weaves into the lyrics. It reflects a call for stability and personal accountability during a period of great instability.
Rodolfo Sciammarella was a prolific Argentine lyricist, known for his contributions to the genre of Tango, blending deep emotional narratives with societal commentary.
