Letra del Tango Otra vez carnaval (Noche de carnaval)

En los ojos llevaba la noche
y el amor en la boca…
Carnaval en su coche
la paseaba triunfal.
Serpentina de mágico vuelo
fue su amor de una noche;
serpentina que luego arrastró mi dolor
enredada en las ruedas de un coche
cuando el corso en la sombra quedó…

Otra vez, Carnaval,
en tu noche me cita
la misma bonita
y audaz mascarita…
Otra vez, Carnaval,
otra vez, como ayer,
sus locos amores
le vuelvo a creer.
Y acaso la llore
mañana otra vez…

Fugitivas se irán en la aurora
la ventura y la risa…
¡Tendrán todas mis horas
una gris soledad!
En mis labios habrá la ceniza
de su nuevo desaire;
y despojos del sueño tan sólo serán,
un perfume rondando en el aire
y en el suelo un pequeño antifaz…

English lyrics of the Tango "Otra vez carnaval (Noche de carnaval)"

In her eyes she carried the night
and love on her lips…
Carnival in her car
she paraded triumphantly.
Streamer of magical flight
was her love of one night;
streamer that then dragged my pain
entwined in the wheels of a car
when the parade faded in the shadow…

Again, Carnival,
in your night I’m summoned
by the same pretty
and daring masked girl…
Again, Carnival,
again, like before,
her crazy passions
I come to believe once more.
And perhaps I will cry
again tomorrow…

Fleetingly they will leave at dawn
joy and laughter…
All my hours will have
a gray solitude!
On my lips there will be the ashes
of her new betrayal;
and remnants of the dream will just be,
a fragrance lingering in the air
and a small mask on the ground…

Story behind the Tango Otra vez carnaval (Noche de carnaval)

Otra vez carnaval (Noche de carnaval) tells a story of fleeting romance and bittersweet longing set against the backdrop of a lively carnival night. The protagonist reminisces about a night filled with love and masquerade, captured by the charm of a mysterious figure who embodies the evanescent joy and fantasy of the carnival. It speaks to the transient nature of happiness, as joyous moments are overshadowed by the inevitable return of solitude and disillusionment.

Symbolism of Otra vez carnaval (Noche de carnaval)

The tango uses rich symbolism to convey its themes. “Serpentina de mágico vuelo” (Magic streamers) represents the fleeting and colorful yet ultimately temporary nature of the love experienced. The recurring use of “Carnaval” is symbolic of temporary escape and masquerade where people hide behind masks, echoing the ephemeral and deceptive nature of the romantic encounter. The “pequeño antifaz” (small mask) left on the ground symbolizes the remnants of illusion and the end of festivity, hinting at the loss and loneliness that follow once the magic of the carnival dissipates.

Otra vez carnaval (Noche de carnaval) in historic Context
