Lyrics

Español

Suena el piano, la luz está sobrando, se hace noche de pronto y sin querer las sombras se arrinconan evocando a Griseta, a Malena, a María Ester. Las sombras que esta noche trajo el tango me obligan a evocarla a mí también. Bailemos que me duele estar soñando con el brillo de su traje de satén. ¿Quién pena en el violín? ¿Qué voz sentimental cansada de sufrir se ha puesto a sollozar así? Tal vez será el rumor de aquella que una vez de pronto se durmió. ¡Tal vez será su voz, tal vez! Su voz no puede ser, su voz ya se apagó, ¡tendrá que ser nomás mi propio corazón! Era triste, era pálida y lejana, negro el pelo, los ojos verde gris. Y eran también sus labios al sol de la mañana una triste flor de carmín. Un día no llegó, quedé esperando. Y luego me contaron su final. Por eso con las sombras de los tangos ¡vanamente la recuerdo más y más!

The piano is playing, the light is getting dim, it suddenly becomes night and unintentionally the shadows are cornered evoking Griseta, Malena, María Ester. The shadows that tonight brought the tango force me to evoke her too. Let's dance because it hurts me to be dreaming with the shine of her satin dress. Who sorrow on the violin? What sentimental voice tired of suffering has begun to sob like this? Perhaps it is the murmur of the one who once suddenly fell asleep. Maybe it's her voice, maybe! Her voice can't be, her voice has already died out, it'll just have to be my own heart! She was sad, she was pale and distant, her hair black, her eyes gray-green. And her lips were also in the morning sun a sad carmine flower. One day she did not come, I waited. And then they told me about her end. That's why with the shadows of the tangos I remember her more and more!
