Letra del Tango Tu llamado

Sin mandarme cuatro líneas ni un adiós
Sin una sola palabra, sin hablar,
Mi cariño lo rompiste
Y no comprendo por qué lo hiciste.

Cuando caigo por las noches al café
Ya me contesta el patrón sin preguntar,
“Hoy tampoco lo ha llamado”
Y acongojado, vuelvo a esperar.

Siempre espero tu llamado
Y el teléfono no suena,
Y si suena algún llamado,
Es de algún afortunado
Pero que olvida su pena.
Siempre espero tu llamado
Como cuando me querías,
En mi mesa, arrinconado,
Voy a esperar tu llamado
Por si te acuerdas de mí.

Todo el mundo me pregunta dónde estás
Y para colmo de mi hondo padecer,
Hoy trajeron los anillos
Con el cintillo que te encargué.

English lyrics of the Tango "Tu llamado"

Without sending me four lines or a goodbye
Without a single word, without speaking,
You broke my affection
And I don’t understand why you did it.

When I drop by the café at night
The boss already answers without asking,
“Today he hasn’t called either”
And distressed, I wait again.

I always wait for your call
And the phone doesn’t ring,
And if any call comes through,
It’s from someone lucky
Who forgets their sorrow.
I always wait for your call
Like when you loved me,
Cornered at my table,
I will wait for your call
In case you remember me.

Everyone asks me where you are
And to add to my deep suffering,
Today they brought the rings
With the band that I ordered for you.

Story behind the Tango Tu llamado

“Tu llamado” translates to “Your Call” in English, illustrating a deep sense of longing and waiting expressed through the lyrics. The song’s narrator describes the emotional toll of waiting for a symbolic call from a loved one who has departed without a proper goodbye. Conveyed through potent imagery, the lyrics explore themes of abandonment, unfulfilled hopes, and the relentless passage of time marked by futile waiting.


Symbolism of Tu llamado

The telephone in “Tu llamado” serves as a poignant symbol of connection and, more potently, disconnection. Every ring teases the possibility of reconnection, yet it only amplifies the emptiness when it’s anyone but the loved one on the line. The call—or lack thereof—becomes a metaphor for the hope and despair in waiting for someone who may never return. Essential to the emotional landscape of this tango is the stark contrast between past affection (“Como cuando me querías”) and present abandonment, deepening the narrative of lost love and persistent yearning.


Tu llamado in historic Context

Created in 1945 Argentina, “Tu llamado” emerges during a period marked by sociopolitical changes and the aftermath of World War II. This backdrop may have influenced Cadícamo’s portrayal of personal loss and waiting, mirroring the uncertainty and upheaval of the time. Buenos Aires, the heart of tango culture, often captured themes of melancholy, nostalgia, and the struggles of everyday life, elements that resonate deeply in “Tu llamado.”
