Letra del Vals Serenata campera

Mi serenata es la canción,
la que me inspira tu corazón.
Amor primero, último amor,
ya muchas lunas pasaron
y mucho más te amo yo.

Ya galopa,
galopando va,
mi caballo
por el cañadón
con tu nombre,
paisanita voy.
Corazón
no te duermas
que esta noche azul
las estrellas
me verán pasar.
Mi guitarra
bordoneando está
juntito al ventanal.

Este vals
te lo dedico a ti,
con la queja
de mi corazón,
que en los campos
se han dormido ya.
Óyeme,
como el canto
del jilguero da
y cantando
de su nido va
yo cantando
a tu ventana voy amor.

English lyrics of the Vals "Serenata campera"

My serenade is the song,
the one inspired by your heart.
First love, last love,
many moons have passed
and I love you much more.

Now it gallops,
galloping goes,
my horse
through the deep gorge
with your name,
my country girl, I go.
Heart,
do not fall asleep
for this blue night
the stars
will see me pass.
My guitar
is strumming
by the window.

This waltz
I dedicate to you,
with the lament
of my heart,
that in the fields
have already fallen asleep.
Listen,
like the song
of the goldfinch gives
and singing
from its nest it goes
I, singing,
to your window I go, my love.

The protagonist delivers a heartfelt serenade guided by the light of the moon, expressing deep affection that has grown stronger over the years.

Serenata campera in Historic Context

Recorded in 1950, “Serenata campera” arrives during a rich period of Argentine history where tango music evolved into a symbol of national identity. The serene and pastoral themes likely offered an idyllic escape from the post-war reality, weaving the traditional rural life of Argentina into the broader narrative of tango, a genre more frequently associated with the urban setting of Buenos Aires. This song serves as a bridge connecting the urban emotions of love and longing with the tranquil and picturesque rural life, embraced typically by gauchos and country folk.
