Letra del Vals Valsecito amigo

Vals sentimental de nuestras viejas horas,
¡nunca te escuché tan triste como ahora!
Llegas hasta mi para aumentar mi queja,
tiene tu rondín sabor a cosa vieja…
Vals sentimental, ingenuo y ondulante,
vuelvo a recordar aquellos tiempos de antes.
Una voz lejana me acusa en tu canción,
¡valcesito!… ¡y envuelve mi emoción!

Vuelca tu nostalgia febril,
tu musiquita sensual,
se que no es posible seguir
oyéndote sin llorar.
Valcesito amigo, no ves
esta incertidumbre tenaz
que no hace más
que remover y conmover
mi soledad…
Unos ojos verdes de mar
más grandes que su ilusión,
unas ansias grandes de amar…
después… llorando una voz…
Valcesito amigo, no ves
que tu musiquita sensual
no sabe más
que atormentar y atormentar
mi corazón…

Cuando llegue el fin de mi oración postrera,
quiero imaginarla así, como ella era…
Juntaré mi voz a aquellos labios suyos,
mientras tu canción nos servirá de arrullo.
Vals sentimental de nuestras horas,
ya no me verán tan triste como ahora.
Lentamente tus notas amigas cantaré,
valsecito… ¡y entonces moriré!

English lyrics of the Vals "Valsecito amigo"

Sentimental waltz of our old hours,
never have I heard you as sad as now!
You come to me to increase my complaint,
your serenade has the taste of something old…
Sentimental waltz, naive and undulating,
I recall those times of before again.
A distant voice accuses me in your song,
little waltz!… and wraps my emotion!

Pour out your feverish nostalgia,
your sensual little music,
I know it’s not possible to keep
listening to you without crying.
Little waltz, don’t you see
this persistent uncertainty
that does nothing
but stir and move
my solitude…
A pair of sea-green eyes
larger than her illusion,
a great longing to love…
then… a voice crying out…
Little waltz, don’t you see
that your sensual little music
knows nothing more
than to torment and torment
my heart…

When the end of my last prayer comes,
I want to imagine her like she was…
I’ll join my voice to those of her lips,
while your song will lull us.
Sentimental waltz of our hours,
I won’t be seen as sad as now.
Slowly I will sing your friendly notes,
little waltz… and then I will die!
