Letra del Tango Embrujamiento

¡Qué embrujo sin perdón es este amor!
¡Tu amor!,
del que no puedo libertarme.
¿Qué fuerza loca y cruel me empuja a vos,
sin ver
que ya jamás podré salvarme?
¿Qué magia hay en tu boca
roja como una maldición,
que me embruja y me quema?
Aún sabiendo que no es mío tu corazón.
¿Por qué te quiero odiar si sólo sé vivir
queriéndote cada vez más?

Tu amor es fuego en mis venas
y es insomnio en mis noches.
Tu amor es una condena
que bendice tu nombre.
Quiero olvidarte y te llamo,
quiero odiarte y te adoro,
quiero ahogarte en mis brazos,
y al mirarte a los ojos te imploro,
te imploro llorando perdón.

English lyrics of the Tango "Embrujamiento"

What unforgivable spell is this love!
Your love!,
from which I cannot free myself.
What mad and cruel force pushes me to you,
not seeing
that I can never save myself?
What magic is there in your mouth,
red like a curse,
that bewitches and burns me?
Even knowing your heart is not mine.
Why do I want to hate you if I only know how to live
loving you more and more?

Your love is fire in my veins
and insomnia in my nights.
Your love is a sentence
that blesses your name.
I want to forget you and I call you,
I want to hate you and I adore you,
I want to drown you in my arms,
and as I look into your eyes I plead,
I plead crying for forgiveness.

Story behind the Tango Embrujamiento

The song “Embrujamiento”, which translates to “Bewitchment” or “Enchantment” in English, conveys deep emotional turmoil and conflicted feelings towards an irrepressible love. The protagonist expresses how this love, seemingly under a spell, draws him irresistibly towards someone, despite knowing that this bond cannot be fruitful. This love is described as both a curse and a vital part of his existence, showing a stark battle between heart and mind.



Symbolism of Embrujamiento

The vivid imagery in “Embrujamiento” captures the intense emotions associated with unrequited or damaging relationships. Phrases like “Tu amor es fuego en mis venas” (Your love is fire in my veins) symbolize the consuming, painful nature of this affection, while “y es insomnio en mis noches” (and is insomnia in my nights) outlines the restless, torturous aspect of loving someone deeply without reciprocation. The repeated exclamations of imploring forgiveness at looking into their eyes reveal the depth of despair and longing that the speaker feels, cementing the love as both a prayer and a curse.



Embrujamiento in historic Context

Recorded in the early 1940s, “Embrujamiento” reflects a period of significant artistic expression in Argentina, where Tango was a medium for reflecting personal and collective emotions. The era was marked by political and social upheaval, and music like Tango allowed for an emotional escape and a form of resistance. This piece, registering acute personal feelings, can also be seen as an escape from the tumult of the time, providing listeners with a means to explore and empathize with profound emotional experiences through the arts.
