Letra del Tango Levanta tu corazón

No dejes que tu alma
Se sienta vencida,
Si por el camino
Sufrió algún dolor;
Siempre habrá un motivo
Para dar la vida,
Siempre habrá un motivo
Para una canción.

El surco, el arado,
La pampa, la sierra,
Son fiestas que el alma
Te habrán de alegrar;
No olvides que en el frágil
Paso por la tierra,
Somos como ríos
Que van hacia el mar.

Levanta tu corazón…
Aprende de nuevo a sonreír,
Si te engañó una ilusión
Dedícale una canción
Y cesarás tú de sufrir.

Las cosas que hace el destino
Jamás se pueden torcer,
Hagamos cual peregrino
Cantando el camino
Que hay que recorrer.

English lyrics of the Tango "Levanta tu corazón"

Do not let your soul
Feel defeated,
If along the way
It suffered some pain;
There will always be a reason
To give life,
There will always be a reason
For a song.

The furrow, the plow,
The plains, the mountains,
Are festivities that will
Bring joy to your soul;
Do not forget that in the fragile
Journey on earth,
We are like rivers
Flowing towards the sea.

Lift your heart…
Learn to smile again,
If a dream deceived you
Dedicate a song to it
And you will cease to suffer.

The things that fate does
Can never be twisted,
Let’s act like pilgrims
Singing on the path
We must walk.
