Letra del Vals El espejo de tus ojos

Ven, reclina tu cabeza
sobre este pecho que es tuyo,
quiero dormirte al arrullo
de mi amoroso latir.
Ven, que yo quiero mostrarte
lo que te adoro, bien mío,
deja ese ceño sombrío
que tanto te hace sufrir.

Deja las luchas del mundo,
ven, reconcentra tu vida;
por una senda florida
debemos andar los dos.
Si, cansada de sufrir,
busca tu pecho hidalguía,
yo te ofrezco el alma mía
donde tan sólo esta Dios.
¡Qué me importa que se mofe
este mundo indiferente,
que al sarcasmo ruin, hiriente,
me arroje la sociedad!
Yo te amo, yo te idolatro
como un lucero divino
que alumbrará el cruel camino
de mi oscura adversidad.

Yo quiero ser todo tuyo,
ocupar toda tu vida,
ser la prenda más querida
que tengas en tu existir.
Quiero sonreír si sonríes,
quiero llorar si lloraras,
implorar si tú imploraras,
si tú murieras, ¡morir!

English lyrics of the Vals "El espejo de tus ojos"

Come, rest your head
on this chest that is yours,
I want to lull you to sleep
with the beat of my loving heart.
Come, I want to show you
how much I adore you, my love,
leave that frowning brow
that makes you suffer so much.

Leave the struggles of the world,
come, concentrate your life;
along a flowered path
the two of us must walk.
Yes, tired of suffering,
if your noble heart seeks,
I offer you my soul
where only God resides.
What does it matter to me if
this indifferent world mocks me,
if society throws its
cruel, stinging sarcasm at me!
I love you, I idolize you
like a divine star
that will light the cruel road
of my dark adversity.

I want to be all yours,
occupy your whole life,
be the most cherished possession
you have in your existence.
I want to smile if you smile,
I want to cry if you cry,
beg if you were begging,
if you were to die, to die!

Story behind the Tango El espejo de tus ojos

The tango “El espejo de tus ojos,” which translates to “The mirror of your eyes,” poetically expresses deep love and devotion. The lyrics speak directly to a loved one, asking them to lay down their worries and rest on the speaker’s chest, offering a sanctuary of love and devotion in a sometimes indifferent world. The speaker’s passionate declaration of support and willingness to share in all emotions—joy and sorrow alike—illustrates a desire for a profound and all-encompassing emotional union.



Symbolism of El espejo de tus ojos

This song employs vivid symbols, like “El espejo de tus ojos” (The mirror of your eyes), suggesting that the eyes of the beloved reflect not only their soul but also the speaker’s emotions and intentions. Phrases such as “quiero dormirte al arrullo de mi amoroso latir” (I want to lull you to sleep to my loving heartbeat) and “yo te ofrezco el alma mía donde tan sólo está Dios” (I offer you my soul where only God is present) use symbolic language to communicate the depth of the speaker’s emotional connection. This imagery underscores the themes of spiritual and transcendental love, suggesting a relationship that transcends the ordinary.



El espejo de tus ojos in historic Context

Released in 1944 in Argentina, “El espejo de tus ojos” emerges during a volatile period marked by World War II’s impacts and significant social and political changes within Argentina itself. This environment of uncertainty and adversity could be mirrored in the song’s lyrics, which emphasize personal sacrifice, unconditional support, and finding solace in love amidst societal “sarcasmo ruin, hiriente” (cruel, hurtful sarcasm). The timing also reflects the Golden Age of Tango, where the dance and music were avenues for expressing deeper societal feelings and personal emotions.
