Letra del Tango La chacarera

Chacarera, chacarera.
Chacarera de mi amor,
si te pido que me quieras
no me contestes que no.
Chacarera, chacarera,
no me hagas más sufrir,
si querés tanto a la vida,
Quereme un poquito a mi.

Chacarerita, chacarerita
que por los campos vas vaporosa,
chacarerita de ojos de fuego
de labios frescos como una rosa,
chacarerita tan linda y graciosa,
que en busca de flores al campo te vas,
chacarerita tu linda boquita,
tu linda boquita quisiera besar.

Chacarerita que vas
Siempre sutil,
siempre gentil
y simpática.
Chacarerita que estás
llena de amor,
como una flor
enigmática.
Mi linda chacarerita
tené de mi compasión,
pues nadie podrá adorarte
tanto, tanto como te adoro yo.

Chacarera, chacarera.
Chacarera buena moza,
que vas siempre entre las flores
igual que una mariposa.
Chacarera, chacarera.
No me hagas más sufrir,
si querés tanto a la vida,
quereme un poquito a mi.

Chacarerita, chacarerita,
chacarerita me tenés loco,
chacarerita no seas tan mala
chacarerita quereme un poco.
Chacarerita tan linda y graciosa,
que en busca de flores al campo te vas,
chacarerita tu linda boquita
tu linda boquita dejame besar.

English lyrics of the Tango "La chacarera"

Chacarera, chacarera.
Chacarera of my love,
if I ask you to love me
do not answer me with a no.
Chacarera, chacarera,
do not make me suffer any longer,
if you love life so much,
love me just a little.

Chacarerita, little chacarera
who breezily roams the fields,
little chacarera with fiery eyes
and lips fresh as a rose,
charming, beautiful chacarerita,
who goes to the fields in search of flowers,
your lovely little mouth,
I long to kiss your little mouth.

Chacarerita who goes
always subtle,
always gentle
and charming.
Chacarerita who is
filled with love,
like an enigmatic flower.
My lovely little chacarerita,
have compassion for me,
for no one can love you
as much, as deeply as I do.

Chacarera, chacarera.
Chacarera, beautiful lass,
who always moves among the flowers
like a butterfly.
Chacarera, chacarera.
Do not make me suffer any longer,
if you love life so much,
love me just a little.

Chacarerita, little chacarera,
little chacarera, you drive me crazy,
little chacarera, do not be so cruel,
little chacarera, love me a little.
Charming, beautiful chacarerita,
who goes to the fields in search of flowers,
your lovely little mouth,
let me kiss your little mouth.

Story behind the Tango La chacarera

“La chacarera” captures the essence of a romantic plea intertwined with the vibrant imagery of rural life. The lyrics repeatedly implore a beloved, referred to as “chacarera,” to reciprocate the singer’s love. The song portrays a vivid scene of natural beauty and traditional rural life, using the “chacarera” both as a symbol of the beloved and as a representation of the dance form popular in the countryside. This overlay of personal longing with a cultural dance element deepens the song’s emotional layer and reflects a yearning not just for love but also for a connection to cultural roots.



Symbolism of La chacarera

The repeated references to “chacarera,” which traditionally refers to both a folk dance and a music style from Argentina, symbolize a deep love and fondness not only for a person but also for the cultural heritage. Phrases like “chacarerita de ojos de fuego” and “de labios frescos como una rosa” use elements of fire and nature to emphasize passion and beauty, intensifying the emotional expression. The use of these metaphors connects the personal affection to the vibrancy and spirit of the rural landscapes, underscoring the intertwined fates of love and cultural identity.



La chacarera in historic Context

Written in 1940, a period when tango music was integral to Argentine culture, “La chacarera” not only reflects personal sentiments but also echoes the national sentiment of that era. During this time, Argentina was seeing a blend of traditional and modern influences, and tango was a medium through which the complexities of Argentine identity were explored and expressed. This song, set against such a backdrop, uses the folkloric ‘chacarera’ to perhaps subtly comment on the tensions between the old ways and the modernizing societal forces.
