Lyrics

Español

Recitado: Con este ritmo compadre El milongón se bailaba, Con corte y medialunas, Con taconeo y sentada... Con este ritmo compadre El milongón se bailaba, Era una danza atrevida, Que a los mocitos gustaba... Con cortes y medialunas, Con taconeo y sentada, ¡Qué lindos tiempos! No volverán... Los niños de galerita Gallardos y elegantones, Los taitas, fieras melenas Violentos y compadrones. Pero en los tangos milongas Como en la bravas peleas, Se entreveraban valientes De igual a igual... Si algún puñal relucía Buscando donde anidarse, La juventud se lucía A puño limpio y coraje. Eran bailongos bravíos Donde el varón se templaba, ¡Qué lindos tiempos! No volverán...

English · machine translation

Recitation: With this rhythm compadre. The milongón was danced, With corte and croissants, With heel-clicking and sitting... With this rhythm compadre The milongón was danced, It was a daring dance, That the youngsters liked... With cortes and croissants, With heels and sitting, What nice times! They won't come back... The children of galerita Cocky and elegant, The taitas, fierce manes Violent and compadrones. But in the tangos milongas As in the brave fights, They intermingled bravely Equal to equal... If some dagger glittered Looking for a nesting place, The youth showed off With a clean fist and courage. They were brave dancers Where the male was tempered, What beautiful times! They won't come back...
