Letra del Tango Sentimiento criollo

Bellezas de mi tierra
Adonde vieron mis ojos, la luz,
En tu recuerdo mi amor se encierra
Y me consuela ver tu cielo azul.
Después de larga ausencia
Cuando la vida bebió un sinsabor,
Como una buena madre, al volver
Nos brinda su calor.

Recitado:
No hallé bellezas más gratas al alma
Como las que viera donde nací…

Gratos ensueños de nuestro hogar
Llenos de encantos de un dulce amor,
Hermosos campos del patrio suelo
De los juncales, blando rumor,
Donde el boyero, su canto
Entona a la sombra del ceibal en flor.

Donde brilló mi juventud
Cuando en sublime evocación,
Mi guitarra guarnecida
De cintas celestes y blancas, triunfó.

English lyrics of the Tango "Sentimiento criollo"

Beauties of my land
Where my eyes first saw the light,
In your memory my love is sealed
And I find comfort in your blue sky.
After a long absence
When life tasted bitterness,
Like a good mother, upon return
She offers us her warmth.

Recited:
I found no beauties more pleasing to the soul
Than those where I was born…

Pleasant dreams of our home
Filled with the charms of sweet love,
Beautiful fields of the native soil
Where whispers the soft rustle of the reeds,
Where the herdsman sings his tune
Under the shade of blooming ceibal trees.

Where my youth shone bright
When in sublime recollection,
My guitar adorned
With sky-blue and white ribbons, triumphed.

Story behind the Tango Sentimiento criollo

“Sentimiento criollo” translates to “Creole Feeling” in English, encapsulating a deep emotional connection to one’s native land and culture. This tango, composed during a time of significant cultural identity in Argentina, reflects nostalgia and the deep emotional ties to one’s homeland. The lyrics express a yearning for the familiar landscapes and sentiments associated with the author’s birthplace, highlighted by a vivid portrayal of the returning emotions when revisiting these cherished locations.

Symbolism of Sentimiento criollo

The tango uses strong symbolic imagery to evoke the beauty and intrinsic value of the author’s homeland. Phrases like “Bellezas de mi tierra” (Beauties of my land) and “ver tu cielo azul” (see your blue sky) not only illustrate the natural beauty but signify the emotional solace the landscape offers. Another poignant symbol is the guitar “guarnecida de cintas celestes y blancas” (adorned with sky-blue and white ribbons), representing the Argentine flag, thus underlining national pride intertwined with personal nostalgia.

Sentimiento criollo in Historic Context

Written and recorded in 1941, amidst a globally tumultuous period, “Sentimiento criollo” perhaps served as a reminder of unity and identity for Argentinians. During this time, Argentina was under the rule of neutrality in World War II until later joining the Allied Powers in 1945. This context of uncertainty and the longing for peace and stability are echoed in the poignant yearning for the familiar comforts of home and the country’s serene landscapes, pitched against the backdrop of a chaotic world.
