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"

Fortunate that time of marvelous childhood,

Golden infancy, sweet age of innocence,

The world was an Eden where goodness prevailed,

And filled with dreams, the heart was happy.

Maternal caress, hand loyal and generous,

Unequalled tenderness, ideal world, rose-colored.

From the fortunate past, only the memory remains,

Life, harsh and cruel, has now taught me what pain is.

My bleeding heart I hold

Deep in the cruelest sorrow,

Yearning for the warm comfort of the nest

And in the song

Its emotion overflows.

Evoking the lost goodness

Is the purpose of this song

And to caress your ears,

The beats of

My heart will go.

Now that you are not here, I feel you deeper in the soul

And no one will ever erase your true image.

Now that you are not here, the anguish is so tenacious,

Due to having been, perhaps, at times a bit cruel.

The echo of your voice, which is God’s voice, vibrates in my ear

And it is a motivating breath that gives strength to the disheartened.

Your immaterial kiss brushes past my temple

And although you are not here, very maternally, you watch over me.

Story behind the Tango Para ti madre

The tango “Para ti madre” (For You, Mother) is a heartfelt tribute to the memory and spirit of a mother. It traverses the journey from childhood innocence to the harsher realities of adult life, emphasizing the perennial impact a mother’s love and presence has on one. The lyrics poignantly reminisce about the blessed, carefree days of youth, painting them as a time of golden innocence under the benevolent realm of maternal love. It reflects on the loss felt in her absence, underlining the depth of longing and enduring connection to her nurturing spirit. The song is both a personal reflection and a universal homage to motherly love.



Symbolism of Para ti madre

The lyrics of “Para ti madre” are rich in symbolism. The reference to childhood as “infancia de oro y miel” (childhood of gold and honey) symbolizes a time of purity and joy, framed by the sweetness and value attributed to these elements. The “edén” (Eden) represents an untouched paradise, illustrating the world as seen through the veil of childhood innocence, unmarred by the pains of adult life. The transition in tone upon the mother’s absence captures the stark contrast between warmth of maternal love and the void her absence leaves. Phrases like “mi corazón sangrante” (my bleeding heart) and “el pesar más cruel” (the cruelest sorrow) depict the profound emotional impact of her loss.



Para ti madre in Historic Context

Recorded in 1949 in Argentina, “Para ti madre” emanates from a post-war context where many people were dealing with personal loss and the rebuilding of their lives. Mother figures often symbolized constancy and comfort in a world dealing with the aftermath of conflict and upheaval. The tango, with its emotive reach, provided an outlet for public and private grief, as well as a means to keep alive the memories of those who might have been lost or distant.



Venancio Clauso

Venancio Clauso was an Argentine lyricist known for his poignant and evocative tango lyrics that often explored themes of love, loss, and nostalgia.
