Letra del Tango Si no me engaña el corazón

No se desde qué puerto
ni por dónde llegarás,
amor que mi nostalgia espera.
Un día, cruzarás por mi camino,
como un anuncio de la primavera.
¿Será mañana o tardarás tal vez?
Pero yo siento que estás cerca ya.
Y así vivo esperando,
porque sé que alguna vez,
sonriendo te presentarás.

Si no me engaña el corazón,
cuando me dice que vendrás,
como en el cine y en los cuentos,
mi sueño más feliz se cumplirá.
Si no me engaña el corazón
y frente a mí te encuentro un día,
yo te daré la bienvenida,
con la dulce melodía
de un cantar de amor.

Yo se que tú me buscas como yo te busco a ti,
amor que ya has tardado tanto.
Apúrate que aún tengo el alma joven
y hay en mis labios un alegre canto.
Yo se como eres y como es tu voz,
porque en mis sueños ya te imaginé.
Por eso, si algún día nos cruzáramos los dos,
sé que te reconoceré.

English lyrics of the Tango "Si no me engaña el corazón"

I don’t know from which port
nor by where you’ll arrive,
love that my longing awaits.
One day, you’ll cross my path,
like a hint of the spring.
Will it be tomorrow or will it perhaps take long?
But I feel you’re already near.
And so I live waiting,
because I know that sometime,
smiling, you will appear.

If my heart doesn’t deceive me,
when it tells me you will come,
like in movies and in tales,
my happiest dream will come true.
If my heart doesn’t deceive me
and one day I find you before me,
I will welcome you,
with the sweet melody
of a love song.

I know that you’re searching for me as I search for you,
love that has already taken so long.
Hurry, for I still have a young soul
and on my lips a joyful song.
I know what you are like and what your voice is,
for in my dreams I have already imagined you.
Thus, if one day our paths should cross,
I know I will recognize you.
