Letra del Tango Te quiero

Te quiero,
como no te quiso nadie,
como nadie te querrá.
Te adoro,
como se adora en la vida,
la mujer que se ha de amar.
Te quiero,
como se quiere a la vida
cuando la vida es beldad;
como se quiere a un hermano;
como se quiere a una madre,
con ese amor sin igual,
como se quiere en la vida
una vez, y nada más.

Hoy te quiero más que ayer,
pero menos que mañana;
y no hay fuerza sobrehumana
que detenga mi querer.
Son muy lindas las caricias,
si nacen del corazón;
y son lindos los amores
que conservan la ilusión.

Y si un querer lo provoca,
es sublime, hasta el dolor,
y las penas, no son penas,
cuando son penas de amor.

Hoy te quiero más que ayer
pero menos que mañana;
mi pasión es soberana,
y reclama tu querer.

English lyrics of the Tango "Te quiero"

I love you,
like no one has loved you before,
like no one will ever love you.
I adore you,
as one adores in life,
the woman who must be loved.
I love you,
as one loves life
when life is beauty;
as one loves a sibling;
as one loves a mother,
with that unparalleled love,
as one loves in life
once, and never again.

Today I love you more than yesterday,
but less than tomorrow;
and there is no superhuman strength
that can stop my love.
Caresses are very beautiful,
if they come from the heart;
and so are loves
that keep the illusion alive.

And if a love causes it,
it is sublime, even the pain,
and sorrows are not sorrows,
when they are sorrows of love.

Today I love you more than yesterday
but less than tomorrow;
my passion is supreme,
and it demands your love.

Story behind the Tango Te quiero

The tango “Te quiero” epitomizes deep, abiding love. The lyrics, “Te quiero, como no te quiso nadie, como nadie te querrá,” meaning “I love you, as no one else has loved you, as no one else will,” set a tone of an enduring and unrivalled affection. This sentiment is thoroughly explored through expressions of adoration and comparisons to the deep, familial love one feels for a mother or a sibling, indicating a love that is profound and pure.



Symbolism of Te quiero

Canaro uses vivid symbolism to enhance the emotion in “Te quiero.” The dialogue starts by comparing love to the reverence for life’s beauty and an unparalleled love for close family members, symbolizing an almost sacred level of affection. The verses “Son muy lindas las caricias, si nacen del corazón,” express that the most beautiful caresses are those born from the heart, emphasizing truth and purity in affection. Furthermore, the recurring lines “Hoy te quiero más que ayer, pero menos que mañana,” signify a love that is ever-growing, intensifying day by day, underscoring love’s timeless, enlarging nature.



Te quiero in historic Context
