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 once opened for your sake.
This piano shuddered with your song.
This table, this mirror, and these paintings
hold echoes of the echo of your voice.
So sad it is to live among memories…
So tiring to hear that rumor
of the gentle rain crying time
over what the heart once wanted.

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

When I try to move away from the past,
it’s futile… my heart tells me.
That piano, that table, and those paintings
hold echoes of the echo of your voice.
In a blue album lie the verses
that your absence covered with loneliness.
It’s the sad ash of remembrance
nothing more than ash, nothing more…

Story behind the Tango Ninguna

“Ninguna” captures the essence of melancholic nostalgia, a key theme in many tango lyrics. This tango tells the story of a place haunted by the memories of a past love. Every element, from the door to the piano, resonates with remnants of a loved one’s presence and their departed voice. These lyrics evoke a profound sense of loss and longing, emphasizing the inability to escape the shadows of the past that linger in ordinary objects.



Symbolism of Ninguna

The song uses vivid imagery and symbols to deepen the emotional impact. Phrases like “Tu piel, magnolia que mojó la luna” liken the lover’s skin to a magnolia wet by the moon, suggesting purity and a touched beauty. Meanwhile, the mention of personal objects like “piano,” “mesa,” and “cuadros” symbolizes the everyday moments shared and now missed. The reference to “echoes of your voice” symbolically portrays how the past continues to echo deeply in the present.



Ninguna in historic Context

Recorded in 1942, “Ninguna” was created during a turbulent period in world history, marked globally by World War II and locally by political and social changes in Argentina. These were times when themes of loss, nostalgia, and the passage of time pervaded artistic expressions. Tango, often a reflection of societal sentiments, thus embodied these emotions, providing a form of cathartic release and connection during times of instability.



Homero Manzi

Homero Manzi was a renowned Argentine lyricist and filmmaker, famous for his poignant and evocative tango lyrics that often depicted deep emotional narratives and urban landscapes.
