Letra del Milonga Milonga del sentimiento

Milonga del sentimiento,
gloriosa milonga mía,
toda mi melancolía
me la matás con tu acento.
Es que vos sos un portento
de belleza arrabalera,
porque evocas donde quiera
fiel, las glorias de mi ayer.

Sos un montón de emociones
que desparrama ternuras,
recuerdos de las locuras
de mi taita juventud.
Con vos yo vivo la vida,
milonga del corazón,
porque sos la bendecida
de mi primera ilusión.

Por vos cantó la mozada
de Palermo a Puente Alsina,
en sus guitarras genuinas
las coplas de mi barriada.
Milonga que fuiste reina
en los patios coloniales,
a la luz de los puñales
de los guapos del lugar.

English lyrics of the Milonga "Milonga del sentimiento"

Milonga of sentiment,
glorious milonga mine,
all my melancholy
you dispel with your sound.
For you are a marvel
of captivating charm,
evoking everywhere
the glories of my past.

You’re a heap of emotions
spreading tender feelings,
memories of the follies
of my youthful days.
With you, I live my life,
milonga of the heart,
for you are the blessed
of my first dreams.

For you, the youth sang
from Palermo to Alsina Bridge,
in their genuine guitars,
the rhymes of my neighborhood.
Milonga that was queen
in colonial courtyards,
in the gleam of daggers
of the local bravado.
