Letra del Vals Flores del alma

Recuerdos de una noche venturosa

que vuelven en mi alma a florecer.

Recuerdos que se fueron con el tiempo,

presiento que reviven otra vez.



Igual que aquella noche tan lejana,

es esta de mi amarga soledad.

La luna sobre el cielo azul te alumbra,

como otra blanca luna que yo nunca veré más.



Si quieres olvidarme, dejame…

Dijiste la mañana que partí.

Tú sabes que te quiero y te querré

y tuyo es el cariño que te di.



A nadie quise tanto como a ti

y amante te ofrecí mi corazón.

Yo sé que para siempre te ha perdido, mi alma,

ya que todo ha sido sólo una ilusión.



Así me reprochabas, sin saber,

que yo compadecía tu dolor,

que cuando me ofreciste tu querer

yo estaba enamorado de otro amor.



¿Comprendes el porqué de mi partir?

¿Comprendes mi amargura en el adiós?

Acaso con los años me hayas olvidado,

¡pero nunca yo!

English lyrics of the Vals "Flores del alma"

Memories of a blissful night
that bloom once again in my soul.
Memories that faded with time,
I feel they are coming back to life.

Just like that distant night,
is this one of my bitter solitude.
The moon above the blue sky illuminates you,
like another white moon I will never see again.

If you want to forget me, leave me…
You said the morning I left.
You know that I love you and will love you,
and yours is the affection I gave you.

I loved no one as much as I loved you,
and offered my heart as your lover.
I know that forever, my soul has lost you,
since everything has been just an illusion.

Thus you reproached me, not knowing,
that I pitied your pain,
that when you offered me your love,
I was in love with another.

Do you understand why I left?
Do you feel my bitterness in farewell?
Maybe over the years, you’ve forgotten me,
but I never will!

Flores del alma is a Tango written by Alfredo Lucero Palacios and composed by Juan Larenza.



Story behind the Tango Flores del alma

The lyrics of “Flores del alma” explore the melancholic recollection of a love that was once vibrant but has now faded. The emotional depth of the tango is deeply rooted in memories that bloom in the soul of the speaker, evoking a past filled with both love and sorrow. With heartrending clarity, the speaker discusses leaving behind a loved one and the pain associated with such partings, while also hinting at another love that prevented him from fully committing to the previous relationship.



Symbolism of Flores del alma

“Flores del alma” (Flowers of the Soul) metaphorically represents the emotions and memories blooming in one’s spirit despite the passage of time. Key phrases such as “Recuerdos que se fueron con el tiempo, presiento que reviven otra vez” (Memories that went away with time, I sense they live again) underline the persistence of past experiences and feelings. The “white moon” symbolizes unreachable beauty and perpetual solitude, enhancing the theme of unreciprocated or lost love.



Flores del alma in historic Context

Composed in 1947, post-World War II Argentina was a period of significant social and political change. The air of melancholic nostalgia in “Flores del alma” might well reflect a collective sense of longing and loss felt by society. The tango captures individual heartbreak and desire yet resonates broadly with the emotional landscape of Argentina during a tumultuous era, where the collective memory of happier times before the war clashed with contemporary feelings of disillusionment and mourning.
