Letra del Tango Yo quiero cantar un tango

Yo quiero cantar un tango,
un tango sentimental
que me recuerde en sus notas
la canción que abrigó
mis noches de arrabal.
Yo quiero cantar un tango,
un tango sentimental,
para acunar en sus versos
la ilusión de ese amor
que no he de ver jamás…

La vi…
llegando por el callejón,
con el rumor entre sus labios
de una música de amor.
Y toda la sensación
que secreta puso en mi alma,
se aviva en mi interior…

Yo sé…
que aquel encuentro de arrabal,
vino a calmar con sus encantos
mi dolor sentimental.
Pero yo…
mal rumbeado por mis penas,
así, sin razonar,
me alejé sin verla más…

English lyrics of the Tango "Yo quiero cantar un tango"

I want to sing a tango,
a sentimental tango
that reminds me in its notes
of the song that warmed
my nights in the slums.
I want to sing a tango,
a sentimental tango,
to cradle in its verses
the illusion of that love
I will never see again…

I saw her…
coming down the alley,
with the rumor on her lips
of a love song.
And all the sensation
that secretly settled in my soul,
is rekindled within me…

I know…
that that encounter in the slums,
came to soothe with its charms
my sentimental pain.
But I…
badly steered by my sorrows,
thus, without thinking,
I walked away to never see her again…
