Letra del Tango Muriéndome de amor

Tu boca puede más que mi cordura
y me tortura la tentación,
con sólo imaginar que tu me besas
ardo en intensa fiebre de amor.
Mi vida es una llama que se inflama
al soplo de una racha de pasión.
Y un ansia que no deja pensar nada,
un ansia atormentada, me arrastra en su turbión.

Hay algo siempre en ti, que me provoca.
Y hay algo siempre en mí, que me apasiona.
Y en medio de los dos, la furia loca
que enciende la pasión en nuestras bocas.
Mil veces he intentado rebelarme,
negándome a esta ciega tentación,
mas tengo un corazón, y soy de carne.
Y al verte junto a mí, vuelvo a besarte,
muriéndome de amor.

Me asusta esta ansiedad con que yo espero
cada momento de nuestro amor.
Me aturde este afiebrado sentimiento
en que me enciendo sin salvación.
Qué embrujo del amor caldeó mi sangre,
qué fiebre me enardece el corazón
y anima en mi flaqueza irresponsable
en ansia irremediable que puede más que yo.

English lyrics of the Tango "Muriéndome de amor"

Your lips have more power than my sanity
and temptation tortures me,
just imagining that you kiss me
I burn in intense love fever.
My life is a flame that ignites
at the blow of a gust of passion.
And a yearning that lets me think of nothing,
a tormented craving, pulls me into its swirl.

There’s always something in you, that provokes me.
And there’s always something in me, that excites.
And between the two of us, the mad fury
that lights the passion in our mouths.
A thousand times I’ve tried to rebel,
denying this blind temptation,
but I have a heart, and I am of flesh.
And seeing you next to me, I kiss you again,
dying of love.

This anxiety scares me with which I await
each moment of our love.
This feverish feeling confuses me
in which I burn with no salvation.
What magic of love heated my blood,
what fever ignites my heart
and stirs in my irresponsible weakness
an irrepressible craving that overpowers me.

Story behind the Tango Muriéndome de amor

Muriéndome de amor translates to “Dying of Love” in English, encapsulating the primary theme of passionate, uncontrolled, and overpowering love. The lyrics describe a person tormented and consumed by their own feelings of love, highlighting a deep emotional struggle between reason and desire. The repeated attempts to rebel against these feelings underscore the intensity and involuntary nature of their love, which ultimately draws them back repeatedly into the embrace of their beloved.


Symbolism of Muriéndome de amor

Carlos Bahr uses vivid language to enhance the emotional impact of the song. Terms like “fiebre de amor” (fever of love) and “furia loca” (crazy fury) symbolize love as a physical ailment or a force of nature, overwhelming and unstoppable. These phrases complement the main theme by portraying love as both destructive and irresistibly compelling, suggesting that the speaker is consumed completely by their passion. The lyric “Mi vida es una llama que se inflama” (My life is a flame that inflames) uses fire imagery to depict love as something that can provide warmth and light but also has the power to consume and destroy.
