Letra del Tango Tu intimo secreto

La dicha es un castillo con un puente de cristal,
camina suavemente si lo quieres alcanzar.
Acércame tus labios sin odio, sin rencor,
desecha tus temores y entrégate al amor.
Tu íntimo secreto a nadie le confíes,
que el mundo siempre ríe y es muy calumniador.

La dicha es un castillo con un puente de cristal,
de mil que lo cruzamos, dos o tres suelen llegar.

Ven, mira que hermosa está la luna,
ven, reclínate en mi corazón
Ríe, que nuestro enojo pasará
y un beso colmará mi desesperación.

Ven, se que tus ojos están tristes,
hay remordimientos en tu voz,
y si me dejas morir
comenzarás a sufrir
cuando la seda de tu pañuelo me diga adiós.

La dicha es un castillo con un puente de cristal,
camina suavemente si lo quieres alcanzar.

Un alma incomparable te di para querer,
un alma, ¡oh!, que tu alma no sabe comprender,
y en un cielo de olvido, lo harás por esta pena,
quemar, como se quema un globo de papel.

La dicha es un castillo con un puente de cristal,
por él va mi cariño, acompáñalo a llegar,
acompáñalo a llegar.

English lyrics of the Tango "Tu intimo secreto"

Joy is a castle with a bridge of glass,
tread gently if you wish to pass.
Bring your lips closer without hate or spite,
cast away your fears, surrender to the night.
Trust your deepest secrets to no one else around,
for the world often sneers and spreads falsehood abound.

Joy is a castle with a bridge of glass,
of thousands who cross, just two or three amass.

Come, see how beautiful the moon is tonight,
come, lean against my heart, hold me tight.
Laugh, our anger will fade away too,
and a kiss will quench my despair anew.

Come, I know your eyes bear sadness,
remorse echoes in your voice, a hint of madness,
and if you let me die,
you’ll start to cry
when the silk of your handkerchief waves goodbye.

Joy is a castle with a bridge of glass,
tread gently if you wish to pass.

An incomparable soul I gave for you to love,
a soul, oh, that your heart fails to know of,
and in a sky of forgetfulness, by this sorrow,
it will burn, like a paper lantern lets go.

Joy is a castle with a bridge of glass,
my love walks this path, help it to pass,
help it to pass.

Story behind the Tango Tu intimo secreto

The Tango, “Tu íntimo secreto” expresses the intimate and delicate balance of pursuing happiness, portrayed as a fragile crystal bridge leading to a castle. The lyrics caution about the challenges on the path to true happiness and love, suggesting that one must traverse this path with gentleness and caution. The narrative intertwines love, secrecy, and emotional vulnerability, emphasizing the importance of guarding one’s deepest secrets and emotions to avoid the ridicule and judgment of the world.



Symbolism of Tu intimo secreto

The recurring imagery of “a castle with a crystal bridge” in the tango symbolizes a precious yet precarious goal in life, such as achieving true happiness or love, which can be easily shattered if not approached with care. The phrase “Tu íntimo secreto a nadie le confíes” underscores the theme of secrecy and caution in emotional expressions, suggesting a protective hoarding of personal, perhaps painful, truths that must not be shared lightly with a world that might not be sympathetic. Phrases like “Ven, mira que hermosa está la luna” and “Ven, se que tus ojos están tristes” use celestial imagery and observations of sorrow to heighten the emotional ground of the narrative, bridging personal intimacy with a universal sentiment of melancholy and longing.



Tu intimo secreto in historic Context

Recorded in 1955, “Tu intimo secreto” emerged during a time in Argentina when Tango was a popular yet evolving art form, reflecting the social and cultural nuances of its era. This period marked a post-World War II Argentina, venturing through political instability and changing social dynamics. The evocation of secrecy and guardedness in the lyrics could mirror the broader sentiment of caution and vulnerability felt by individuals during such uncertain times, addressing a collective sentiment of seeking but cautiously approaching happiness.
