Lyrics
Español · Underlined words are lunfardo: tap one for its meaning.
Se escucha un tango argentino En la voz del bandoneón, Que canta en su melodía A mi pueblo y su emoción. Así es el tango argentino Sencillito y , Que en el vaivén de su danza Va ganando el corazón. Tango, tango porteño Frase dulce en el oído, Confidente y buen amigo Cuando se tiene un dolor. Tango, tango argentino El abrazo de tu danza, Va trayendo la esperanza Cuando se pena de amor. Mi Buenos Aires amado Cuando esté lejos de vos, Pido que un tango argentino Me acompañe con su adiós.
English · machine translation
An Argentine tango is heard In the voice of the bandoneon, That sings in its melody To my people and their emotion. That's how the Argentine tango is Simple and dear, That in the swaying of its dance It wins the heart. Tango, tango porteño Sweet phrase in the ear, Confidant and good friend When you are in pain. Tango, Argentine tango The embrace of your dance, Brings hope When there is sorrow of love. My beloved Buenos Aires When I am far from you, I ask that an Argentine tango Accompany me with its farewell.

Y Tango Argentino, ¿cómo se dio? Tardó diez años en debutar. Tango Argentino fue un milagro.
