Letra del Tango Doble A

En la capilla blanca
de un pueblo provinciano,
muy junto a un arroyuelo de cristal,
me hincaban a rezar
tus manos…
Tus manos que encendían
mi corazón de niño.
Y al pie de un Santo Cristo,
las aguas del cariño
me dabas de beber.

Feliz nos vio la luna
bajar por la montaña,
siguiendo las estrellas,
bebiendo entre tus cabras,
un ánfora de amor…
Y hoy son aves oscuras
esas tímidas campanas
que doblan a lo lejos
el toque de oración.
Tu voz murió en el río,
y en la capilla blanca,
quedó un lugar vacío
¡Vacío como el alma
de los dos…!

En la capilla blanca
de un pueblo provinciano,
muy junto a un arroyuelo de cristal,
presiento sollozar
tus labios…
Y cuando con sus duendes
la noche se despierta
al pie de Santo Cristo,
habrá una rosa muerta,
¡que ruega por los dos!

English lyrics of the Tango "Doble A"

In the white chapel
of a provincial town,
close to a crystal stream,
your hands urged me to pray…
Your hands that ignited
my childlike heart.
And at the foot of the Holy Christ,
you gave me the waters
of affection to drink.

The moon happily watched us
descend from the mountain,
following the stars,
drinking among your goats,
a jar of love…
And now those timid bells
are somber birds
ringing distantly
the call for prayer.
Your voice died in the river,
and in the white chapel,
a place remained empty
Empty like the souls
of us both…!

In the white chapel
of a provincial town,
close to a crystal stream,
I sense your lips sobbing…
And when the night awakens
with its spirits,
at the foot of Holy Christ,
there will be a dead rose,
praying for us both!

Story behind the Tango Doble A

The narrative of “Doble A” centers around a poignant memory set in a small provincial town, with imagery concentrated around a white chapel by a crystalline stream. The lyrics convey a scene of lost love, where the narrator reminisces about youthful innocence and a deep affection. This heartfelt tale unfolds in a setting that associates religious spirituality with personal emotion, enhancing the depth of the protagonist’s sorrow as he remembers a love now lost, symbolized by the empty space in the chapel and the ‘dead rose’ praying for their shared past. The lost love and the blend of spiritual and natural elements paint a poignant picture of bereavement and longing.

Symbolism of Doble A

“Doble A” uses various symbols to enhance its emotional narrative. The ‘white chapel’ symbolizes purity and possibly a space of beginnings or sacred meetings, while the ‘crystalline stream’ suggests transparency and flow of emotions. The act of kneeling to pray introduces a devout, almost sacred dimension to the love they shared. ‘Dead rose’ and ‘dark birds’ signify death and mourning, contrasting with the more vivid and alive symbols of youth connecting these elements to the sorrow of present times. All these symbols interconnect, reflecting on how places tied to deep emotional experiences can seem transformed by our personal tragedies.

Doble A in Historic Context

Released in 1986, “Doble A” hails from a post-dictatorship Argentina, a time when the country was navigating the complexities of reestablishing democracy and dealing with its past traumas. In such a time, a nostalgic longing for a simpler, innocent past as described in “Doble A” could resonate deeply with an audience processing collective and individual losses. The references to natural and spiritual elements may evoke a desire for purity and peace, ideals that were particularly significant in the context of national recovery and reflection.
