Lyrics
Español · Underlined words are lunfardo: tap one for its meaning.
En la calleja querendona y suburbana, los pregones más humildes ponen sol en las mañanas y las muchachas, junto al carro verdulero, se estremecen al piropo del galante vocinglero. Hay un revuelo de trenzas y percales, policromía brillante de arrabal y en cada puerta pone el sol con sus raudales, un poquito más de vida y otro amor sentimental. Tiempo de pantalón a la francesa, noches en que reinaba la ilusión, cuando el amor se volcaba en serenatas, luna de plata sobre el balcón. Tiempo. del bordonear de las guitarras, bajo los techos verdes del parral, cuando el clavel se enredaba en la guedeja, junto a la oreja de algún zorzal. Los viejos valses del renguito organillero que bailaba en la vereda el monito , y la caída de la tarde dibujaba un gris melancolía que en la noche se encerraba. Y eran jardines de rosas y malvones los que colgaban temblando del balcón. Mi Buenos Aires, con mi cofre de emociones en la pena del recuerdo hoy te doy mi corazón.

In the dearest and suburban alley, the most humble cries set the sun in the mornings and the girls, next to the greengrocer's cart, shudder at the piropo of the gallant speaker. There is a commotion of braids and percales, bright polychrome of the suburbs and in each door the sun shines with its streams, a little more life and another sentimental love. Time of French pants, nights when illusion reigned, when love poured out in serenades, silver moon on the balcony. Time. of the guitars strumming, under the green roofs of the vineyard, when the carnation was entangled in the glove, next to the ear of some thrush. The old waltzes of the little lame organ grinder who danced on the sidewalk the little monkey milonguero, and the fall of the afternoon drew a gray melancholy that was enclosed in the night. And they were gardens of roses and malvones that hung trembling from the balcony. My Buenos Aires, with my chest of emotions in the sorrow of memory today I give you my heart.
