Letra del Tango Unica

¡Única tú,

en mi existencia al fin,

golpeada por mil vientos!

¡Única tú,

porque supiste ser

canción y rosa y beso!



¡Única tú,

por tu resignación,

por tu honda fe en mi amor y en mí!

Porque no sé olvidar

que en el instante gris

me amaste más y más.



¡Única tú,

pequeña y tibia hoy,

graciosa y tibia siempre!

Dulce rumor,

con aires de la flor,

que a mi me gusta más.



¡Única tú,

aquí en mi corazón,

que sólo en ti logró la sed calmar!

¡Única tú,

aquí en mi corazón

y para siempre o más!

English lyrics of the Tango "Unica"

You alone,
finally in my life,
beaten by a thousand winds!

You alone,
for you knew how to be
song, rose, and kiss!

You alone,
for your resignation,
for your deep faith in my love and in me!
Because I can’t forget
that in the gray moment
you loved me more and more.

You alone,
small and warm today,
graceful and warm always!
Sweet murmur,
with the airs of a flower,
which I prefer the most.

You alone,
here in my heart,
that only in you managed to quench the thirst!
You alone,
here in my heart
and forever or more!
