Letra del Milonga Prometedora

Quién va a negarse para bailar esta milonga
Si con su ritmo prometedor, llama y provoca,
Si parece que en sus notas
Tuviera un solo que nos hablara,
Que susurra en el corazón: ¡Ven a bailar!

Quiero sentir entre tus brazos,
Cómo aturde, cómo embriaga
Cómo sube de los pies al corazón,
En cada paso, la milonga es una danza
Que se baila con el alma.

Y abandonarme a las cadencias
Soñadoras de sus notas,
Y vibrar con el ardor abrasador…
Como una llama de esta música embrujada
Que no tiene igual para bailar.

English lyrics of the Milonga "Prometedora"

Who would refuse to dance this milonga
With its promising rhythm, calling and provoking,
It seems that in its notes
It holds a solo that speaks to us,
Whispering in the heart: Come dance!

I want to feel in your arms,
How it stuns, how it intoxicates
How it rises from the feet to the heart,
In every step, the milonga is a dance
That is danced with the soul.

And to surrender to the dreamy cadences
Of its notes,
And to throb with searing fervor…
Like a flame of this bewitched music
That is unmatched for dancing.

Prometedora is a Tango written by Raúl Jaurena and composed by Oscar Núñez.



Story behind the Tango Prometedora

The tango “Prometedora” captures the essence of a compelling invitation to dance. It conjures an alluring image where the musical rhythm itself beckons dancers to the floor, promising a soulful and immersive experience. With phrases like “Si con su ritmo prometedor, llama y provoca,” which translates to “With its promising rhythm, it calls and provokes,” the tango portrays the milonga as not just a dance, but a tantalizing experience that appeals directly to the heart and soul of its participants. Here, the milonga is animated, whispering directly to the dancers, inciting them to join in the musical embrace.



Symbolism of Prometedora

The symbol of the dance itself is central in “Prometedora.” Personified through Jaurena’s lyrics, the dance seems to whisper and intoxicate, pulling dancers into its rhythmic pulse – “Que susurra en el corazón: ¡Ven a bailar!” or “That whispers in the heart: Come dance!” Furthermore, the ecstasy of dancing the milonga is compared to a flame, illuminating and warming the dancers, serving as a powerful motif of passion and fervor – “Como una llama de esta música embrujada.” These symbols intensively express the transformative power of the milonga, not just as a dance, but as a soul-stirring journey.



Prometedora in historic Context

Recorded in 1962, a period rich with cultural evolution in Argentina, “Prometedora” embodies the spirit of traditional tango while embracing a youthful zest. The early 1960s in Argentina were a time of significant societal shifts and a renaissance in folk and traditional music, making the lure of the milonga an echo of both nostalgia and contemporary exploration. This historical backdrop enriches the song’s theme, suggesting that each step taken in the dance is a step through time as well — a dance of history and progress intertwined.
