Letra del Tango Que nadie se entere

Vagando a la ventura, buscando en lontananza
La fe de aquellos ojos que iluminó mi ser,
Deshecho por el sino, muriendo la esperanza
Llegué hasta la barriada que vio mi amor nacer.
La misma calma quieta de aquellas noches bellas
Hallé para castigo de la recordación,
Tan sólo está en silencio la ventanita aquella
Donde con versos locos, rimaba mi ilusión.

Que nadie se entere
Que he vuelto a buscarla,
Volcando la fiebre
De mi soledad.
Que nadie le diga
Que he vuelto a llamarla,
Y al ver que no estaba
Me puse a llorar.
Que nadie se entere
Que loco he golpeado,
La reja querida
Que me oyó cantar.
Y a nadie le digas
Ventanita amiga,
Que has visto en mis ojos
La pena sangrar.

Tan sólo si ella vuelve sin fe y sin esperanza
Y ves que nuevamente espera al trovador,
Entonces, ventanita, contale mis andanzas
Decile que no ha muerto, en mi querer su amor.
Pero si en su mirada hay luz de otros quereres
Y ves que no se acuerda del pájaro cantor,
Callate ventanita, no quiero que se entere
Que he vuelto hasta su reja, mordiendo mi dolor.

English lyrics of the Tango "Que nadie se entere"

Wandering aimlessly, searching in the distance
For the faith of those eyes that lit up my being,
Undone by fate, as hope was dying
I reached the neighborhood where my love was born.
The same calm stillness of those beautiful nights
I found as a punishment of remembrance,
Only in silence is that little window
Where with crazy verses, I rhymed my illusion.

Let no one find out
That I’ve come back to look for her,
Pouring the fever
Of my loneliness.
Let no one tell her
That I’ve come back to call her,
And seeing she was not there
I started to cry.
Let no one find out
That I crazily banged,
The beloved gate
That heard me sing.
And do not tell anyone
Dear little window,
That you’ve seen in my eyes
The bleeding sorrow.

Only if she returns without faith and without hope
And you see that once again she waits for the troubadour,
Then, little window, tell her my wanderings
Tell her that her love has not died in my heart.
But if in her gaze there is a light of other loves
And you see that she does not remember the singing bird,
Keep quiet little window, I don’t want her to know
That I have returned to her gate, biting my pain.

Story behind the Tango Que nadie se entere

His reunion with memorable places, such as the quiet little window where he once expressed his dreams and desires through song, marks a painful journey back to a time of unfulfilled love. The refrain “Que nadie se entere,” meaning “Let no one find out,” highlights his desire to keep his return and the reasons for it a deeply hidden secret.



Symbolism of Que nadie se entere

The lyrics are rich in symbolism, painting a landscape of emotional depths. The “ventanita,” or small window, acts as a poignant symbol of past intimacy and dreams, reflecting the speaker’s inner turmoil. The use of night scenes and distant memories deepen the sense of nostalgia and loss. Key phrases like “La pena sangrar” (the bleeding sorrow) symbolize the intense emotional pain the speaker experiences, amplified by the solitary and secretive nature of his suffering.



Que nadie se entere in historic Context
