Letra del Tango Y te parece todavía

Te importó destrozarme la vida

y arrastrar mi esperanza al espanto.

Te importó que se hundieran en llanto,

mi amor y mis sueños. ¿No es cierto que no?

Te importó que grité de rodillas,

no me hagas sufrir de este modo.

Y querés que me olvide de todo,

cerrando mis ojos a tanto dolor.



Vos me has hecho mucho daño,

te adoraba y me mentías.

¡Pero tanto, tanto daño,

todo, todo el que podías!

¿Te parece todavía

que te puedo perdonar?

Vos serás como una herida

para el resto de mi vida,

pero otra cosa, ¡jamás!



Si era yo quien te hubiese mentido,

quien te hubiera llenado de agravios.

Con la pura verdad en tus labios,

no es cierto que harías, lo mismo que yo.

Te callás porque se lo que digo,

porque puedo gritar lo que siento,

porque ahora no sos mi tormento,

no sos mi locura, ni quiero tu amor.

English lyrics of the Tango "Y te parece todavía"

You didn’t care about shattering my life,
dragging my hopes into terror.
You didn’t care about drowning in tears,
my love and my dreams. Isn’t it true that you didn’t?

You didn’t care when I cried on my knees,
“Don’t make me suffer like this.”
And you want me to forget everything,
closing my eyes to so much pain.

You have hurt me so much,
I adored you, and you lied.
But so much, so much harm,
all, all you could!
Do you still think
that I can forgive you?
You will be like a wound
for the rest of my life,
but never anything else!

If it were I who had lied to you,
who had filled you with offenses,
with pure truth on your lips,
isn’t it true that you would do, the same as I?
You keep quiet because I know what I say,
because I can shout what I feel,
because now you are not my torment,
you are not my madness, nor do I want your love.

Story behind the Tango Y te parece todavía

The Tango ‘Y te parece todavía’ revolves around profound feelings of betrayal, suffering, and irreversible emotional damage. The narrator addresses an unnamed person who has caused them profound hurt, dragging their hopes into despair and their dreams into tears. The lyrics express the deep pain and disillusionment felt by the narrator due to the lies and betrayal from someone they once deeply loved. The repetition of phrases about emotional damage, accompanied by a plea for empathy that went unheard, underlines the theme of inconsolable grief and the struggle to move past the inflicted wounds.



Symbolism of Y te parece todavía

The title phrase, ‘Y te parece todavía’, which translates to ‘And you still think’, captures the essence of incredulity and dismay that persists throughout the song. It highlights the astonishment and disbelief that the perpetrator of the emotional pain still expects forgiveness despite the profound harm they’ve caused. Symbolism in the Tango comes through the metaphors of deep emotional wounds and the portrayal of love and dreams as entities that can be destroyed, emphasizing the destructive impact of betrayal. Key phrases such as “cerrando mis ojos a tanto dolor” (closing my eyes to so much pain) emphasize the desire to escape from the relentless anguish, while retaining a vivid consciousness of the betrayal.



Y te parece todavía in historic Context

The Tango was recorded in 1959, a period rich in Argentina’s musical evolution, where Tango music often expressed the narratives of common people, their emotions and societal changes. The post-war era was marked by a mix of progressive optimism and underlying societal disillusionment, possibly allowing the intense expression of personal betrayal in Tango lyrics like these to resonate well with the audience. This historical backdrop may have intensified the reception of such emotionally loaded lyrics, portraying personal grievances amidst societal shifts.



Abel Aznar

Abel Aznar was a noted Argentine lyricist and poet, associated with many classic Tangos, whose works often delve into themes of loss, love, and personal anguish.
