Letra del Tango Volveras

Es la canción que escuchamos ayer
Y que oigo de nuevo y marchita mi mente,
Es el amor que ni el tiempo ha borrado
Y latente, te ha esperado.

No sé mentir y otra vez te diré
Que recuerdo y aún vivo momentos pasados,
Es el amor que quizás, otra vez
Quiere hablarnos de nuevo a los dos.

La bruma al retornar, torna en claridad
Y aparece así, el amor primero,
Te miro y te contemplo, como entonces te vi
Siento tu voz, te acercas más.

Porque escucho en el silencio
Las promesas que me hacías,
Muy bajito me decías:
“Si, te quiero, hasta el cielo”.

Y al hablar de nuestras vidas
No pensamos separarnos,
Y te seguiré esperando
Porque sé, que has de volver.

English lyrics of the Tango "Volveras"

It is the song we heard yesterday
And that I hear again, withering my mind,
It is the love that not even time has erased
And, latent, has waited for you.

I cannot lie, and I will tell you again
That I remember and still live past moments,
It is the love that perhaps, once more
Wants to speak anew to us both.

The mist, as it returns, turns into clarity
And thus appears, the first love,
I look at you and contemplate, just as I saw you then
I hear your voice, you come closer.

Because in the silence I hear
The promises you were making,
You whispered very softly:
“Yes, I love you, to the sky”.

And talking about our lives
We did not think to part,
And I will keep waiting for you
Because I know, you will return.

Story behind the Tango Volveras

The lyrics of “Volverás” evoke profound emotions of nostalgia and enduring love. The song encapsulates the feeling of revisiting a love that although aged, has never faded. It speaks of a love that has waited patiently, survived the test of time, and now re-emerges with the same intensity. The narrator reflects on past moments shared with a loved one, suggesting a hopeful reunion as they recall the exemplar times they once shared.



Symbolism of Volveras

The opening lines, “Es la canción que escuchamos ayer,” use the metaphor of a song to represent lingering memories and emotions that remain vivid as ever. This symbolism extends to the nature of the love spoken about, suggesting that like a melody, the essence of their love continues to resonate over time. Phrases like “La bruma al retornar, torna en claridad” metaphorically illustrate how past confusion or separation clears up upon the return of a significant other, restoring clarity and reviving initial feelings of love (“el amor primero”). The whispered promise, “Si, te quiero, hasta el cielo,” symbolizes an eternal commitment that stretches ‘to the sky’—an unquantifiable, lofty extent.



Volveras in Historic Context

“Volverás” was written during a tumultuous period in Argentina, marked by political and social shifts. In 1961, the nation was experiencing significant changes, which influenced arts profoundly. The longing and nostalgia in the song possibly reflect a general societal sentiment—a yearning for stability and the comforting memories of the past during uncertain times. Given this context, the song might not only be a personal expression of lost and revisited love but also an emotional reflection of the nation’s collective memory and desire for the return to happier times.
