Lyrics

Español

Luciendo en su esplendor la cálida emoción de algún pregón arrabalero, la luna, la luna de mis sueños, dejó en la noche su canto bueno. Requiebra en tu balcón, florido y coquetón, con dulce voz, mi buen amor. Y mientras la ciudad sueña, también, sentimental... lejano se hace tango un bandoneón. Soy como el tango tristón que enredó en tu balcón el compás de una queja, ¡que es mía y te besa! Yo soy tu cantor... y esta noche al pasar, en tus sueños en flor quiero dejar mi corazón. Distante el bandoneón hilvana en su canción luna y malvón para tu pelo. ¡Porteña, porteña de mis sueños, ni sé yo mismo cuánto te quiero! Monótono un reloj insiste en su rondón para turbar mi adoración, y en tanto el arrabal, vela tu sueño de cristal, te dejo como siempre el corazón.

English · machine translation

Shining in its splendor the warm emotion of some street crier's proclamation, the moon, the moon of my dreams, left in the night its good song. Requiebra on your balcony, flowery and flirtatious, with sweet voice, my good love. And while the city dreams, too, sentimental... far away a bandoneon becomes tango. I am like the sad tango that entangled in your balcony the beat of a complaint, that is mine and kisses you! I am your singer... and tonight as you pass by in your blossoming dreams I want to leave my heart. Distant the bandoneon spins in its song moon and malvón for your hair. Porteña, porteña of my dreams, I don't even know how much I love you! Monotonous a clock insists in its chime to disturb my adoration, and while the suburb, watches over your crystal dream, I leave you as always my heart.
