Letra del Tango La marcha nupcial

Drama real es este que en verso rememoro
al oír los compases de la Marcha Nupcial,
mientras Cupido llora sobre un bolsón de oro,
un alma ve esfumarse su fe sentimental.
Ensueños ahogados en torpe ambición,
¡Triunfo del oro sobre el corazón!

Te vi salir del templo con tu flamante esposo,
envuelta en los acordes de la Marcha Nupcial.
Un resplandor de dicha te iluminaba el rostro,
el porte de una reina lucías al andar…
En mi rededor, las gentes comentaban tu belleza.
Yo sentía mi herido pecho estremecerse de emoción…
Me daba vueltas la cabeza.
¡Y era la angustia del corazón!

¡Dulce tiempo que estás en la distancia!
¡Cuántos juramentos! ¡Cuántas ilusiones!
Tus palabras, tus risas, tu fragancia.
¡Castillos de esperanza barridos por el viento!
Yo era pobre… soñador.. ebrio de luna…
(No pude ofrecerte mas bien que mi ternura)
Vos echaste a una balanza tu hermosura
y el dinero de otro pesó más.

En lágrimas secretas se ahogan mis reproches,
oyendo el homenaje de la Marcha Nupcial…
Miré partir tu coche que se perdió en la noche…
y huí con mi doliente… profunda soledad…
El eco de la marcha se adentró hasta lo más hondo
sonó con ritmo de responso… sobre el cadáver de mi corazón.

English lyrics of the Tango "La marcha nupcial"

This real drama, in verse I now recall,
when I hear the strains of the Wedding March,
as Cupid weeps over a pouch of gold,
a soul sees its sentimental faith vanish.
Dreams drowned in foolish ambition,
The triumph of gold over the heart!

I saw you leave the temple with your splendid husband,
wrapped in the chords of the Wedding March.
A glow of joy lit up your face,
you carried the demeanor of a queen as you walked…
Around me, people commented on your beauty.
I felt my wounded chest tremble with emotion…
My head was spinning.
It was the anguish of the heart!

Sweet time now in the distance!
So many promises! So many dreams!
Your words, your laughter, your fragrance.
Castles of hope swept away by the wind!
I was poor… a dreamer… drunk on moonlight…
(I could offer you nothing but my tenderness)
You weighed your beauty on a scale
and another’s money weighed more.

In secret tears, my reproaches drown,
listening to the homage of the Wedding March…
I watched your carriage disappear into the night…
and fled with my aching… deep loneliness…
The echo of the march penetrated deep within,
sounded with the rhythm of a requiem… over the corpse of my heart.

Story behind the Tango La marcha nupcial

“La marcha nupcial,” translating to “The Wedding March” in English, recounts the emotional turmoil of an individual witnessing the marriage of a loved one to someone else. As the wedding march plays, symbolizing joy and union, the speaker experiences deep personal loss, observing the ceremony where his dreams and hopes dissolve into the opulence that surrounds the bride. The narrative taps into themes of unrequited love, societal pressures, and the impact of materialism on personal relationships.



Symbolism of La marcha nupcial

The repeated references to the “Marcha Nupcial” (Wedding March) throughout the song serve as a poignant symbol of the narrator’s shattered dreams and the joy that he cannot partake in. The march contrasts sharply with his internal world, marked by despair and solitude. Phrases like “mientras Cupido llora sobre un bolsón de oro,” which implies that even Cupid mourns over a purse of gold, highlight the triumph of material wealth over true love. This stark imagery emphasizes the depth of the narrator’s loss and the materialistic values that overshadow his pure, albeit impoverished, affection.



La marcha nupcial in historic Context

The creation of “La marcha nupcial” in Argentina in 1941 intersects with a period rich in cultural and social changes, reflecting the struggle between traditional values and the sweeping forces of modernization and materialism. As Tango often captures the emotional and societal pulses of its time, this piece encapsulates the complex interplay between economic influence and romantic ideals. The anguish and economic disparity expressed align with the broader societal conditions of early 20th-century Argentina, where economic pressures heavily influenced personal and social decisions.
