Letra del Tango Que lento corre el tren

Corre el tren que va a encontrarte,
Pero más el ansia mía,
Con qué beso ha de besarte mi emoción,
Con qué cariño apretaré tu corazón.

Corre el tren que va a encontrarte
Pero más el ansia mía,
Y en la dulce ensoñación, de la ilusión,
Tu amor me viene a acariciar.

Qué lento corre el tren
Qué ganas de llegar,
Y las horas van pasando
Y la ansiedad,
De ver las cosas del ayer
Hace vibrar todo mi ser.

Qué lento corre el tren
Más corre mi ansiedad,
Qué cosas me dirás,
Qué cosas te diré,
Qué lento corre el tren
Qué ganas de llegar.

English lyrics of the Tango "Que lento corre el tren"

The train that goes to meet you runs,
But my longing runs further,
With what kiss shall my thrill kiss you,
With what affection will I press your heart.

The train that goes to meet you runs,
But my longing runs further,
And in the sweet reverie, of the illusion,
Your love comes to caress me.

How slowly the train runs,
How I long to arrive,
And as the hours pass by,
And the anxiety,
To see the things of yesterday
Makes my whole being vibrate.

How slowly the train runs,
Yet my anxiety runs faster,
What things you will say,
What things I will tell,
How slowly the train runs,
How I long to arrive.

Story behind the Tango Que lento corre el tren

In “Que lento corre el tren,” Carmelo Volpe captures a profound narrative of anticipation and yearning. The lyrics depict a person traveling by train to reunite with a loved one. Throughout the song, the slow movement of the train is juxtaposed against the swift current of the narrator’s eager emotions. This tension highlights an overwhelming desire to bridge the distance and finally be enveloped by the warmth of an awaited embrace.


Symbolism of Que lento corre el tren

The train in these lyrics symbolizes not just a physical journey but also the emotional journey of someone deeply in love. The repeated line, “Qué lento corre el tren” (How slowly the train runs), emphasizes the impatience and the intensity of the narrator’s feelings. The contrast between the slow progress of the train and the swift rush of the narrator’s longing enhances the emotional depth of the tango. Particularly compelling phrases such as “Corre el tren que va a encontrarte, Pero más el ansia mía” (The train runs to find you, But my eagerness runs even more) use vivid imagery to depict emotions that are racing faster than the locomotive itself.


Que lento corre el tren in historic Context

Recorded in 1943, during a turbulent period of global history amidst World War II, “Que lento corre el tren” likely resonated with many individuals separated from loved ones. This context of separation, whether due to war, migration, or other factors, plays into the emotive delivery and the thematic content of the song. In Argentina, the popularity of tango as a reflective, often melancholic expression meant that themes of longing and reunion were particularly poignant and relatable to the audience of that era.
