Letra del Tango Esta noche de luna

Acercate a mi
y oirás mi corazón
contento latir
como un brujo reloj.
La noche es azul,
convida a soñar,
ya el cielo ha encendido
su faro mejor.
Si un beso te doy,
pecado no ha de ser;
culpable es la noche
que incita a querer.
Me tienta el amor,
acércate ya,
que el credo de un sueño
nos revivirá.

Corre, corre barcarola,
por mi río de ilusión.
Que en el canto de las olas
surgirá mi confesión.

Soy una estrella en el mar
que hoy detiene su andar
para hundirse en tus ojos.
Y en el embrujo
de tus labios muy rojos,
por llegar a tu alma
mi destino daré.
Soy una estrella en el mar
que hoy se pierde al azar
sin amor ni fortuna.
Y en los abismos
de esta noche de luna,
sólo quiero vivir,
de rodilla a tus pies,
para amarte y morir.

Acércate a mi
y oirás mi corazón
contento latir
como un brujo reloj.
Mi voz te dirá
Palabras de miel
que harán de tu pecho
fuego encender.
El canto del mar
repite en su rumor
qué noche de luna,
qué noche de amor.
Dichoso de aquel
que pueda decir,
yo tengo un cariño
qué dulce es vivir.

Corre, corre barcarola,
que la luna se escondió.

English lyrics of the Tango "Esta noche de luna"

Come close to me
and you will hear my heart
beat joyfully
like a bewitched clock.
The night is blue,
calling us to dream,
as the sky has lit
its finest lantern.
If I give you a kiss,
it won’t be a sin;
the night is to blame
for inciting desire.
Love tempts me,
come close now,
for the dream’s creed
will revive us.

Hurry, hurry, gondola,
on my river of illusion.
In the song of the waves
my confession will rise.

I’m a star in the sea
that today stops its path
to dive into your eyes.
And in the spell
of your very red lips,
to reach your soul
I will give my destiny.
I’m a star in the sea
lost at random today
without love or fortune.
And in the abyss
of this moonlit night,
I only wish to live,
kneeling at your feet,
to love you and die.

Come close to me
and you will hear my heart
beat joyfully
like a bewitched clock.
My voice will tell you
words of honey
that will ignite
fire in your chest.
The sea’s song
echoes its murmur
what a moonlit night,
what a night of love.
Blessed is he
who can say,
I have a love
how sweet life is.

Hurry, hurry, gondola,
for the moon has hidden away.
