Letra del Vals Un vals (Se fue)

Te encontré no sé como ni cuándo,
sufriendo y penando
sin fe y ya vencido.
Y mi alma, que estaba sangrando,
te estaba esperando
sediento de amor.
Sólo sé que te amé locamente
y en un beso ardiente
juramos querernos.
Pero hoy que no estás a mi lado,
no sé si he soñado
o fue realidad.

Llegó…
lo dice el alma mía.
Partió…
repito en mi agonía.
Si te amé y vos juraste amarme,
¿cómo fue que has podido dejarme?
Se fue…
lo dice el alma mía.
Se fue
llevando mi alegría…
y al notar que no ha sido esto un sueño,
es vano mi empeño
de amar sin morir.

Ya tus labios no habrán de besarme
ni habrán de mirarme
tus ojos tan tristes;
ni tu voz impregnada de llanto
pondrá el dulce encanto
de hablarme de amor.
Fue tan grande la dicha vivida,
cuan grande es la herida
que hoy llevo en el alma,
que me paso las horas pensando
si estuve soñando
o fue cruel verdad.

English lyrics of the Vals "Un vals (Se fue)"

I met you, I don’t know how or when,
suffering and grieving,
faithless and already defeated.
And my soul, which was bleeding,
was waiting for you
thirsty for love.
All I know is that I loved you madly,
and in a fiery kiss,
we swore to love each other.
But now that you’re not by my side,
I don’t know if I dreamed,
or if it was reality.

It came…
so says my soul.
It left…
I repeat in my agony.
If I loved you and you swore to love me,
how could you have left me?
It went…
so says my soul.
It went,
taking my joy…
and realizing this was not a dream,
my effort is vain
to love without dying.

Now your lips won’t kiss me,
nor will your sad eyes look at me;
nor will your voice, laden with tears,
put the sweet enchantment
of speaking of love.
So great was the joy we lived,
as great is the wound
that I now carry in my soul,
that I spend hours thinking
if I was dreaming
or if it was a cruel truth.

Story behind the Tango Un vals (Se fue)

The tango “Un vals (Se fue)” captures a poignant narrative of a deep and turbulent romantic relationship. The song begins with the retrospective meeting of two souls, where the narrator finds the partner in a state of despair and defeat, a scenario that sets the foundation for their intense but fleeting love story. The lyrics poignantly recount the transformation from despair to passionate commitment, and eventually, to a painful separation, reflecting the emotional stages of love, hope, and loss.


Symbolism of Un vals (Se fue)

The central themes of “Un vals (Se fue)” revolve around love, loss, and the eternal question of reality versus dreams. The repetitive questioning of whether the relationship was real or merely a dream adds a profound layer of uncertainty and introspection. This recurring doubt serves as a poignant reflection on the impermanence and fleeting nature of human connections. The use of words such as “penando” (suffering) and “sangrando” (bleeding) intensifies the emotional depth, symbolizing the inner turmoil and profound emotional wounds left by love.


Un vals (Se fue) in historic Context
