Letra del Vals Para ti madre

Dichoso tiempo aquel de la niñez maravillosa,
infancia de oro y miel, bendita edad de ingenuidad,
el mundo era un edén en donde el bien reinaba
y lleno de ilusión era feliz el corazón.
Caricia maternal, mano leal y generosa,
ternura sin igual, mundo ideal, color de rosa.
Del venturoso ayer sólo quedó el recuerdo,
la vida dura y cruel ya me enseñó lo que es dolor.

Mi corazón sangrante tengo
en el pesar más cruel sumido,
extraña el buen calor del nido
y en la canción
se derrama su emoción.
Evocación del bien perdido
es para ti la canción
y a acariciar tus oídos
irán los latidos
de mi corazón.

Ahora que no estás, te siento más hondo en el alma
y nadie ha de poder borrar, jamás, tu imagen fiel.
Ahora que no estás es tan tenaz la angustia
de haber sido, quizás, alguna vez un poco cruel.
El eco de tu voz, que es voz de Dios, vibra en mi oído
y es soplo alentador que da valor al abatido.
Tu beso inmaterial pasa mi sien rozando
y aunque no estás aquí, muy maternal velas por mí.

English lyrics of the Vals "Para ti madre"

Happy time that of the marvelous childhood,
golden infancy of honey, blessed age of innocence,
the world was an Eden where goodness reigned
and full of hope, the heart was happy.
Maternal caress, loyal and generous hand,
unmatched tenderness, ideal world, rose-colored.
From the fortunate past, only the memory remains,
harsh and cruel life has already taught me what pain is.

I have my bleeding heart
deeply sunk in the cruelest sorrow,
it misses the warm comfort of the nest
and in the song
its emotion pours out.
Evocation of the lost good
is for you the song
and to caress your ears
will go the beats
of my heart.

Now that you’re not here, I feel you deeper in my soul
and no one will ever be able to erase your faithful image.
Now that you’re not here, the anguish is so tenacious
of having been, perhaps, once a bit cruel.
The echo of your voice, which is the voice of God, vibrates in my ear
and is an encouraging breath that gives strength to the downtrodden.
Your immaterial kiss brushes my forehead
and even though you’re not here, very maternally, you watch over me.

Para ti madre by Venancio Clauso

Para ti madre is a Tango written by Venancio Clauso and composed by José Mocciola.



Story behind the Tango Para ti madre

“Para ti madre” (“For you, mother”) is a tender portrayal of a narrator’s reminiscence of childhood and the deep-seated affection for their mother. The lyrics convey a nostalgia for the past safety and purity of childhood, juxtaposing it against the harsh realities of adulthood. This song serves as an ode, pulling on the emotional threads of loss, nostalgia, and undying love for a mother who seems to have passed on or is absent. The intense personal grief and longing for maternal comfort echo throughout the song’s verses.



Symbolism of Para ti madre

The tango uses vivid imagery and symbolism to express deep emotions. The description of childhood as a time of ‘gold and honey’ symbolizes innocence and joy. The recurring theme of nature, describing the world as an ‘eden’, enhances the sense of a lost paradise. The symbolism of maternal affection – described as ‘maternal caress’, ‘loyal and generous hand’, ‘unmatched tenderness’ – underscores the pure and unconditional nature of maternal love. The poignant shift to ‘now that you are not here’ symbolizes the vacuum and pain of her absence, showcasing the enduring impact of a mother’s love.



Para ti madre in historic Context

Recorded in 1948, post-World War II, Argentina was undergoing significant social and economic changes. During such times, themes of family, maternal affection, and reminiscence of simpler times would resonate deeply with the audience. This period was also marked by a fervent sense of nostalgia and the seeking of comfort in personal memories and relationships, as illustrated in the emotive recount of a mother’s enduring influence and memory in the tango.
