Letra del Tango Sentimiento gaucho

Vuelvo de tierras muy lejanas donde ayer
fuera a buscar olvido a mi dolor,
consuelo al alma que sufrió, al creer
en los engaños y promesas del amor.
Rumbo al olvido, que es un bálsamo al sufrir,
partí llevando en mi amargura
el cruel recuerdo de la ventura
que en otros tiempos junto a ti creí vivir.

Fui
esclavo de tu corazón
y a tus caprichos yo cedí
y me pagaste con traición.
Hoy, curada mi alma de su herida,
pienso que nunca he de volver
a mendigar tu querer.
Porque allá donde fui
mis pesares a olvidar
del amor conocí
las delicias hasta embriagar.
Mi dolor llegó a curar.
Mi pasión sólo dio
los sentidos para amar,
pero mi alma dejó
su pureza conservar
y así pronto llegó
sus tristezas a olvidar.

Pero hoy te he visto junto a mi lado pasar.
Mi corazón tan rápido latió
que aquella herida que creí curar
ante tu vista de improviso se entreabrió,
pues no bastaron para calmar mi dolor
ni las caricias ni el olvido.
De nuevo sufro por ser querido
y hoy, como entonces, soy esclavo de tu amor.

English lyrics of the Tango "Sentimiento gaucho"

I return from faraway lands where yesterday
I sought to forget my pain,
comfort for the soul that suffered, believing
in the deceptions and promises of love.
Heading towards oblivion, which is a balm to suffering,
I left carrying in my bitterness
the cruel memory of the happiness
that I believed to live by your side in past times.

I was
a slave to your heart
and to your whims I gave in
and you repaid me with betrayal.
Today, my soul healed from its wound,
I think I shall never return
to beg for your love.
Because where I went
to forget my troubles
from love I learned
the delights to intoxication.
It healed my pain.
My passion only gave
the senses to love,
but my soul left
its purity to preserve
and thus it soon forgot
its sorrows.

But today I saw you pass by my side.
My heart beat so fast
that the wound I thought healed
suddenly reopened at your sight,
for neither caresses nor oblivion were enough
to soothe my pain.
I suffer again for being loved
and today, like then, I am a slave to your love.

Story behind the Tango Sentimiento Gaucho

The lyrics of “Sentimiento gaucho” narrate a tale of deep emotional turmoil and heartbreak, where the speaker returns from distant lands sought in an attempt to heal from romantic betrayal. Despite efforts to forget and heal, the mere sight of a past lover reopens old wounds, suggesting a persistent, unresolved attachment. The journey, meant for healing, brings both the intoxication of new love and the stark realization that some emotional scars are indelible.


Symbolism of Sentimiento Gaucho

“Sentimiento gaucho” distinctly uses travel and physical distance as a metaphor for emotional distance and healing. However, the return signifies that no matter the distance traveled, the heart’s wounds remain vulnerable to the presence of past love. Phrases like “Rumbo al olvido,” which translates to “heading towards forgetting,” and “ante tu vista de improviso se entreabrió,” or “suddenly opened at your sight,” poignantly symbolize the ongoing battle between past attachments and the desire to move forward. The use of “esclavo de tu amor,” meaning “slave to your love,” highlights a lack of control over one’s emotions, portraying love as a powerful, dominant force.


Sentimiento Gaucho in historic Context

Created in 1983, “Sentimiento gaucho” emerges at a time of significant cultural and political changes in Argentina, a period shortly after the return to democracy post-Military dictatorship. This historical context adds depth to the lyrics, mirroring the societal longing for relief from past traumas, while also confronting the lingering impacts of those harsh years. This song, with its introspective look at pain and recovery, might resonate with the national sentiment of rebuilding and healing.
