Letra del Tango Entrada prohibida

Entre tus ropas vi una carta

casi de vieja está borrada,

y en ella decías: yo te quiero,

toda tuya, toda soy.

Entre tus ropas vi una carta

que la guardé porque esperaba,

no me engañarías y de nuevo,

a mi lado vuelves hoy.



En mi cabecera colgué

la estampilla y una flor,

que marchita la guardé;

me la diste como prueba de cariño

y llenaste mi pecho de ilusión.

Te convencerás que no fui

tan malito y que con vos

pasé el tiempo más feliz.

Yo no sé si un consejo o si tu almita

se empeñó en destrozar mi corazón.



Vieras solo, como estaba

la tristeza me mataba,

nadie pudo contentarme,

nadie pudo ahogar mi amor.

¡Ay! si vieras el que quiere.

¡Ay! si vieras como siente,

como siente al quedar solo

con sus penas y dolor.



Pronto los días fueron años

nunca sentí tal desengaño,

siempre te esperaba y no volvías

y mi vida se amargó.

Tanto pensaba en el pasado,

tanto miraba tu retrato

que me pareció ver las cenizas,

las cenizas de mi amor.

English lyrics of the Tango "Entrada prohibida"

Among your clothes I found a letter,

almost faded, it’s old and tattered,

and in it you said: I love you,

all yours, I am all yours.

Among your clothes I found a letter

that I kept because I hoped,

you wouldn’t deceive me and today,

you’d return by my side.



On my headboard I hung

a stamp and a flower,

withered, I kept it;

you gave it as a token of affection

and filled my chest with dreams.

You will realize I wasn’t

so bad, and with you

I spent the happiest times.

I don’t know if it was advice or your little soul

that insisted on shattering my heart.



You should have seen, just how I was

sadness was killing me,

no one could comfort me,

no one could quench my love.

Oh! if you saw the one who loves.

Oh! if you saw how they feel,

how it feels to be left alone

with their sorrows and pain.



Soon days turned into years

never felt such disappointment,

always waited for you and you didn’t return

and my life turned bitter.

So much I thought of the past,

so much I looked at your picture

that I seemed to see the ashes,

the ashes of my love.

Story behind the Tango Entrada prohibida

The lyrics of “Entrada prohibida” delve into the tale of heartbreak and longing, expressed through the discovery of an old, fading letter among someone’s clothes. This letter, filled with declarations of love, serves as a painful reminder of a love that once was. The protagonist keeps the letter, clinging to hope and memories, although the loved one had not returned as promised. The vivid portrayal of loneliness and the unyielding hope in love’s return encapsulates the central emotional journey of the lyrics.

Symbolism of Entrada prohibida

The letter found among the clothes symbolizes a relic of the past, essentially a phantom of feelings that are no longer reciprocated. Symbolism further deepens with the description of a stamp and a wilted flower, which are kept as mementos. These items serve as vessels of the protagonist’s hope and emotional attachment, representing the longing for the past joys and intimacy that are no longer present. The reference to the flower, now wilted, precisely symbolizes the decay of the relationship and the love that has faded.

Entrada prohibida in historic Context

Produced during a time of considerable cultural and political shifts in Argentina, the melancholic undertones of “Entrada prohibida” might reflect wider societal sentiments. The year 1971 falls within a turbulent period marked by political unrest and social changes, potentially making this tango resonate with its audience as a reflection of loss and disillusionment not only in personal relationships but perhaps also mirroring the national climate.
