Letra del Tango Un amor

Un amor,
Cansado de rodar,
Llegó a mi corazón
Serenamente.
Cascabel
Que quiso despertar,
En mi alma una canción
Tímidamente…
Era el amor que yo soñaba,
Era la luz que entre las sombras
Me alumbraba…
Un amor
Que nunca tuve ayer,
Y que llenó de sol
Todo mi ser.

Fue el murmullo del viento
Que arrulló una canción,
Y me trajo en su acento
Una nueva emoción.
Fue la luz de un lucero,
Fue una voz que me habló,
Y el temblor de un: ¡Te quiero!
En mi alma quedó.

Un amor
Llegó, sentimental,
Acariciándome
Muy tiernamente.
Cascabel,
En medio de mi mal,
Que me enseñó a vivir
Sonrientemente.
Es el amor que ambicionaba,
La dulce paz de una ternura
Que esperaba.
Un amor
Que nunca conocí
Y en medio del dolor
Llegó hasta mí.

English lyrics of the Tango "Un amor"

A love,
Tired of wandering,
Arrived at my heart
Serenely.
A bell
That sought to awaken,
In my soul a song
Timidly…
It was the love I dreamed of,
It was the light that among the shadows
Illuminated me…
A love
That I never had before,
And that filled with sun
All my being.

It was the whisper of the wind
That lulled a song,
And brought to me in its tone
A new emotion.
It was the light of a star,
It was a voice that spoke to me,
And the tremor of an “I love you!”
Remained in my soul.

A love
Arrived, sentimental,
Caressing me
Very tenderly.
A bell,
Amidst my pain,
That taught me to live
Smilingly.
It is the love I longed for,
The sweet peace of a tenderness
I awaited.
A love
That I never knew
And in the midst of pain
Came to me.

Story behind the Tango Un amor

“Un amor” can be translated to “A Love” in English, and its lyrics poetically narrate the arrival of a long-awaited love into the speaker’s life. This love, depicted as arriving “serenamente” (serenely) and “timidamente” (timidly), brings light and life to what was previously shadowed and unfulfilled. The song beautifully reflects the transition from solitude to companionship, emphasizing the transformative power of love. Key phrases like “Me alumbraba” (It illuminated me) and “llenó de sol todo mi ser” (filled my being with sun) highlight the profound emotional impact this newfound love has on the narrator.



Symbolism of Un amor

The lyrics of “Un amor” are rich with symbolic imagery. The love is personified as a quiet bell (“Cascabel”) that awakens a song in the speaker’s soul, suggesting the gentle but profound influence of love. The natural elements used, such as light from a “lucero” (bright star) and the murmur of the wind, symbolize clarity, guidance, and a fresh emotional start. Each of these symbols serves to underscore the purity and divinity often associated with profound love.



Un amor in historic Context

Recorded in 1940 in Argentina, “Un amor” emerged during a period when tango was deeply embedded in the cultural fabric of the country. The 1940s were a time of significant global turmoil, including the early years of World War II, and locally, Argentina was experiencing its own political and social changes. In this context, tangos like “Un amor” offered listeners an escape into emotional depth, exploring themes of personal and intimate experiences against the backdrop of broader uncertainties.
