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’s a sin to love you and give you my heart.
But it doesn’t matter, my love, let’s dream tonight
even though tomorrow we may cry upon waking.

Let’s dream,
that we both are free.
Let’s dream,
in the glory of this love.
Let’s dream,
that nothing can separate us
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 may find each other close,
and never again cry for the pain of this love.

Story behind the Tango Soñemos

“Soñemos” primarily explores the poignant theme of a love that is both deeply yearned for and recognized as unattainable. The lyrics convey a deep sense of longing and the torturous beauty of a love that can exist only in dreams. The speaker acknowledges that loving the other is impossible and perhaps sinful, yet they advocate for a night of dreaming, a temporary escape from their cruel reality. This dreaming serves as a short-lived solace, allowing them to experience love’s full glory despite its impending end. The phrase, “aunque después lloremos mañana al despertar,” touches on the inevitable grief that follows upon waking from their shared illusion.



Symbolism of Soñemos

The repetitive use of “Soñemos” (Let’s dream) symbolizes not only the act of dreaming but also a shared act of creation and mutual escape. The dreamscape becomes a sanctuary where forbidden love is momentarily possible, contrasting sharply with the waking world’s restrictions. The second stanza eloquently crystallizes this idea, portraying a space “where nothing separates us,” highlighting the freedom and unity found only in dreams. Here, Yiso uses dreaming as a metaphor for a temporary, beautiful reunification that transcends the barriers of reality.



Soñemos in historic Context

Written in 1957, “Soñemos” came into being during a prosperous yet politically charged time in Argentina. This era saw significant cultural expression but was also marked by a lead-up to political instability. In this context, the theme of yearning for an impossible love could metaphorically mirror the societal yearnings for a different political reality or more personal freedoms. Furthermore, the act of dreaming can be seen as a form of resistance or a coping mechanism in a context where external realities might have felt oppressive or limiting.
