Letra del Tango Senda florida

Por esta senda donde un bello ruiseñor

cantaba alegre sobre un viejo ventanal,

por esta senda yo he volcado, de mi infancia

las arrogancias de mis años de esplendor.

Aquí, del canto de las brisas, aprendí

las armonías de una dicha singular,

y el alba radiante

con su deslumbrante

corola de luces me enseñó a adorar.



Bella

senda

donde

mi alma

aprendió a querer,

donde con mis juegos placenteros

pasé los años primeros

que ya no pueden volver.

Felices años que adoraba con vehemencia

bajo el sol de la inocencia

que me hacía enternecer.

Soy un jilguero que va volando, volando,

y su canto va dejando

con infinito fervor,

pues en tu senda que está llena de esplendores,

con las más fragantes flores

hice mi nido de amor.



En un recodo de tu senda está mi hogar,

donde mi amada, con dulcísima emoción,

dice a la vida la belleza que la inunda,

con las palabras que modula en su canción.



Senda florida que jamás olvidaré;

bendita senda donde las dichas bebí,

y que has perfumado

el goce anhelado

de verme inundado de azul porvenir.

English lyrics of the Tango "Senda florida"

Along this path where a beautiful nightingale

joyfully sang atop an old window frame,

along this path I have spilled, from my childhood,

the arrogance of my years of splendor.

Here, from the song of the breezes, I learned

the harmonies of a unique happiness,

and the radiant dawn

with its dazzling

circle of lights taught me to adore.

Beautiful
path
where
my soul
learned to love,
where with my delightful play
I spent my earliest years
that can never return.
Happy years that I adored fervently
under the sun of innocence
that made me tender.
I am a finch that goes flying, flying,
and it leaves its song
with infinite fervor,
for on your path that is full of splendors,
with the most fragrant flowers
I made my nest of love.

In a bend of your path is my home,
where my beloved, with sweetest emotion,
tells life about the beauty that fills her,
with the words she crafts in her song.

Flowered path that I will never forget;
blessed path where I drank happiness,
and you have perfumed
the longed-for joy
of seeing myself flooded with a blue future.

Symbolism of Senda florida

The primary symbol in the Tango is the “senda” or path, which represents the journey of life and the passage of time. The path is “florida,” decorated with flowers, suggesting the blossoming of life and the abundance of happy memories. The “viejo ventanal” or old window serves as a gateway to the past, offering a glimpse into bygone days. Birds, often symbols of freedom and the spiritual messenger between the worlds, sing joyously, adding layers of depth about the connection between nature and human emotions, blending the external world with the internal feelings of the persona.
