Letra del Vals Sueño de juventud

Sufres porque me aleja
la fe de un mañana
que busco afanoso
tan sólo por ti.
Y es un collar de estrellas
que tibio desgranan
tus ojos hermosos
llorándome así.

Sueño de juventud
que muere en tu adiós,
tímida remembranza
que añoraré,
canto de una esperanza
que ambicioné
acariciando tu alma
en mi soledad.
Mi pobre corazón
no sabe pensar,
y al ver que lo alejan de ti
sólo sabe llorar,
sólo sabe gemir,
sangrando al morir
en tu adiós…

Lírico amor primero,
caricia y tortura,
castigo y dulzura
de mi amanecer.
Yo acunaré en un canto
tu inmensa ternura
buscando en mi cielo
tu imagen de ayer.

English lyrics of the Vals "Sueño de juventud"

You suffer because the faith in tomorrow
that I actively seek
is solely for you.
And it’s a necklace of stars
softly shed
by your lovely eyes
crying over me like this.

Dream of youth
that dies with your goodbye,
timid memory
that I will yearn for,
song of a hope
I coveted,
caressing your soul
in my solitude.
My poor heart
does not know how to think,
and seeing it drawn away from you
it only knows how to cry,
only knows how to moan,
bleeding as it dies
in your goodbye…

Lyrical first love,
caress and torture,
punishment and sweetness
of my dawn.
I will cradle in a song
your immense tenderness
searching in my sky
for your image of yesterday.

Story behind the Tango Sueño de juventud

The lyrics of “Sueño de juventud” depict a poignant narrative of longing and lost youth, expressed through the lens of a romantic relationship. The protagonist reflects on the emotional turmoil and the deep sense of loss felt upon parting with a loved one. This parting is not just a separation from a person but also from the dreams and aspirations once shared in youth. The poignant tone suggests a deep introspection and the pain of realizing that some dreams might remain unfulfilled.



Symbolism of Sueño de juventud

The use of metaphors and symbolic language in “Sueño de juventud” deepens the emotional impact of the lyrics. Phrases like “un collar de estrellas” symbolize precious, yet ephemeral moments that are cherished yet slipping away, similar to stars disappearing at dawn. The recurring dreams reflect not only nostalgia for the past but also an ongoing struggle to reconcile with the present reality. The imagery of the heart that “sólo sabe llorar” powerfully conveys the profound sorrow and helplessness felt in the face of loss.



Sueño de juventud in historic Context

Recorded in 1944, during a time of global upheaval and reflection due to World War II, “Sueño de juventud” mirrors a universal sentiment of loss and the bittersweet nature of passing time. Argentina in the 1940s was itself undergoing significant political and social changes. In this context, the tango can be seen as a reflection on personal and collective mourning and the quest for meaning in a rapidly changing world. The themes of love, hope, and loss resonate with the emotional climate of the era, echoing the collective experiences of many during that period.
