Letra del Tango Ninguna

Esta puerta se abrió para tu paso.
Este piano tembló con tu canción.
Esta mesa, este espejo y estos cuadros
guardan ecos del eco de tu voz.
Es tan triste vivir entre recuerdos…
Cansa tanto escuchar ese rumor
de la lluvia sutil que llora el tiempo
sobre aquello que quiso el corazón.

No habrá ninguna igual, no habrá ninguna,
ninguna con tu piel ni con tu voz.
Tu piel, magnolia que mojó la luna.
Tu voz, murmullo que entibió el amor.
No habrá ninguna igual, todas murieron
en el momento que dijiste adiós.

Cuando quiero alejarme del pasado,
es inútil… me dice el corazón.
Ese piano, esa mesa y esos cuadros
guardan ecos del eco de tu voz.
En un álbum azul están los versos
que tu ausencia cubrió de soledad.
Es la triste ceniza del recuerdo
nada más que ceniza, nada más…

English lyrics of the Tango "Ninguna"

This door opened for your entry.
This piano shook with your song.
This table, this mirror, and these paintings
hold echoes of the echo of your voice.
It’s so sad to live among memories…
It tires so much to hear that murmur
of the gentle rain crying time
over what the heart once wanted.

There will be no one like you, none at all,
none with your skin nor with your voice.
Your skin, a magnolia drenched by the moon.
Your voice, a murmur that warmed love.
There will be none like you, all have perished
at the moment you said goodbye.

When I try to walk away from the past,
it’s useless… my heart says so.
That piano, that table, and those paintings
hold echoes of the echo of your voice.
In a blue album are the verses
that your absence covered with loneliness.
It is the sad ash of memory,
nothing more than ash, nothing more…

Story behind the Tango Ninguna

The lyrics of “Ninguna” carry a profound sense of loss and nostalgia, accentuated by the evocative imagery of the everyday objects that remind the narrator of a lost love. The opening lines, “Esta puerta se abrió para tu paso. Este piano tembló con tu canción,” immediately establish an environment filled with the lingering presence of a beloved. Each object in these surroundings holds the “echoes of your voice,” serving as a painful reminder of what was once shared. The core of the tango revolves around the irreplaceable nature of this love, highlighted by the repeated lines, “No habrá ninguna igual, no habrá ninguna, ninguna con tu piel ni con tu voz.” This refrain emphasizes the uniqueness of the lost lover and the irrevocability of their departure.



Symbolism of Ninguna

The song is rich in symbolism that enhances its emotional depth. The mention of “tu piel, magnolia que mojó la luna” symbolizes purity and beauty, and connecting it with the moon adds an element of unattainable, ephemeral quality to the lost love. The repeated “echo of your voice” throughout the song symbolizes the haunting, inescapable memories that linger in the physical space, making the past feel palpable. “Es tan triste vivir entre recuerdos” anchors the theme of the painful endurance of living with memories that are cherished yet tormenting.



Ninguna in Historic Context

Written and recorded during the early 1940s in Argentina, “Ninguna” reflects the dramatic sensibility typical of the Golden Age of Tango. The period was marked by significant political and social changes in Argentina, elements that often found their way into the melancholic and deeply introspective lyrics of tango songs of that era. Homero Manzi, known for his poetic and nostalgic lyrics, captured the mood of a nation wrestling with its identity and coping with the challenges of modern life in his tango compositions.
