Lyrics

Español

Yo soy del barrio de Tres Esquinas, viejo baluarte de un arrabal donde florecen como glicinas las lindas pibas de delantal. Donde en la noche tibia y serena su antiguo aroma vuelca el malvón y bajo el cielo de luna llena duermen las chatas del corralón. Soy de ese barrio de humilde rango, yo soy el tango sentimental. Soy de ese barrio que toma mate bajo la sombra que da el parrral. En sus ochavas compadrié de mozo, tiré la daga por un loco amor, quemé en los ojos de una maleva la ardiente ceba de mi pasión. Nada hay más lindo ni más cmpadre que mi suburbio murmurador, con los chimentos de las comadres y los piropos del Picaflor. Vieja barriada que fue estandarte de mis arrojos de juventud... Yo soy del barrio que vive aparte en este siglo de Neo-Lux.

English · machine translation

I am from the neighborhood of Tres Esquinas, old bastion of a suburb where bloom like wisteria the pretty girls in aprons. Where in the warm and serene night its ancient scent overturns the malvón and under the full moon sky sleep the chatas of the corralón. I am from that neighborhood of humble rank, I am the sentimental tango. I am from that neighborhood that drinks mate under the shade of the barnyard. In its ochavas, I was a waiter's compadrié, I threw the dagger for a mad love, I burned in the eyes of a maleva the burning barley of my passion. There is nothing more beautiful or more fatherly than my murmuring suburb, with the gossip of the comadres and the compliments of the Picaflor. Old suburb that was the banner of my youthful daring... I am from the neighborhood that lives apart in this century of Neo-Lux.
