Letra del Tango Soñemos

Yo sé que es imposible quererte y adorarte,
que es un pecado amarte y darte el corazón.
Pero no importa, ¡vida!, soñemos esta noche
aunque después lloremos mañana al despertar.

Soñemos,
que los dos estamos libres.
Soñemos,
en la gloria de este amor.
Soñemos,
que ya nada nos separa
y que somos cual dos almas
que nacieron para amar.

Soñemos,
que me quieres y te quiero.
No importa
que mañana, al despertar,
tus besos
se despidan de mis besos
y así nuestro embeleso
morirá con nuestro amor.

Yo sé que nunca nadie podría separarnos,
y aún no estando juntos nos une un mismo amor.
Acaso en otra vida muy juntos nos hallemos,
y nunca más lloremos la pena de este amor.

English lyrics of the Tango "Soñemos"

I know it’s impossible to love and adore you,
that it is a sin to love you and give you my heart.
But it doesn’t matter, my love, let’s dream tonight,
even if we end up crying tomorrow upon awakening.

Let’s dream,
that both of us are free.
Let’s dream,
in the glory of this love.
Let’s dream,
that nothing separates us now
and that we are like two souls
born to love.

Let’s dream,
that you love me and I love you.
It doesn’t matter
that tomorrow, upon waking,
your kisses
will say goodbye to my kisses
and thus our enchantment
will die with our love.

I know that no one could ever separate us,
and even not being together we are united by the same love.
Perhaps in another life we will find ourselves closely,
and never again mourn the sorrow of this love.

Story behind the Tango Soñemos

“Soñemos” translates to “Let’s Dream” in English, encapsulating the core theme of dreaming about an impossible or forbidden love. The lyrics reveal a deep sense of longing and resignation, acknowledging that although their love is socially unacceptable or unattainable, they can still dream about being together. The overarching theme revolves around the bittersweet nature of an unattainable love that exists only in the sanctuary of dreams.



Symbolism of Soñemos

The consistent use of dreaming as a motif represents escapism and a temporary respite from the harsh realities of their situation. Phrases such as “aunque después lloremos mañana al despertar” (even though we will cry tomorrow when we awake) and “que me quieres y te quiero” (that you love me and I love you) highlight the intense emotions bottled up inside the narrators — a mixture of love, despair, and a reluctant acceptance of reality. Dreaming here symbolizes both a safe space and a poignant reminder of their constraints.



Soñemos in Historic Context

Released in 1956 in Argentina, “Soñemos” mirrors the sentiments of a society emerging from the rigid political climate of Juan Perón’s presidency, during which expression was often stifled. This context adds a layer of understanding to the restrained desires and dreams of forbidden love. The idea of dreaming about a liberated, unregulated love could also reflect a broader societal yearning for freedom and expression in personal and public facets.
