Letra del Tango Yo me presento aquí

Yo me presento aquí,
ya lo ven sin aspaviento,
soy el tango que hace tiempo,
se piantó del arrabal.
Y bien, hoy vine hasta aquí
para hablar con fundamento,
como mezcla de lamento
de tristeza y de bondad.

Yo me presento aquí,
con enfoque de alegría
repartiendo melodías
en mi ritmo original.
A mí me pueden tildar
de matón de sensiblero,
mas yo digo guerrilleros
quién emparda mi compás.

Pasan y pasan los años
los tiempos se van cambiando,
mientras yo sigo abogando
el sentir de mi ciudad.
Poco importa que se diga,
que me cambien el sentido,
soy tal cual como he nacido
eso es todo nada más.

Poco importa que se diga,
que me cambien el sentido,
soy tal cual como he nacido,
eso es todo nada más.
Les invito a que remarquen,
taconeando mi compás,
les invito a que remarquen,
taconeando mi compás.

English lyrics of the Tango "Yo me presento aquí"

I introduce myself here,
as you see, plainly,
I am the tango long gone
from the neighborhood.
Well, today I came here
to speak with substance,
a blend of lament,
of sadness and kindness.

I introduce myself here,
with a tone of joy,
spreading melodies
in my original rhythm.
You may label me
a thug or a sentimentalist,
yet I declare, warriors,
who matches my beat?

Years come and go,
times are ever changing,
yet I keep advocating
the feelings of my city.
It matters little what is said,
if they change my meaning,
I am as I was born,
that is all, nothing more.

It matters little what is said,
if they change my meaning,
I am as I was born,
that is all, nothing more.
I invite you to emphasize,
tapping along to my beat,
I invite you to emphasize,
tapping along to my beat.
