Lyrics

Español

Cuando el sol se va Y la luna su fulgor asoma, Dos sombras a su conjuro Se dibujan ella y él. Nocturno de nuestro suburbio Silbidos de tangos, Pregoneros porteños De nuestra canción. Nocturno de tango Mezcla de risa y dolor, Chapaleando fango Y en esa esquina, un amor. Nocturno de tango Triste, compadre, llorón, Musiquita de los pobres Congojas de un bandoneón.

English · machine translation

When the sun goes down And the moon's gleam peeps out, Two shadows to his spell She and he are drawn. Nocturne of our suburb Whistles of tangos, Porteño heralds Of our song. Nocturne of tango A mixture of laughter and pain, Sloshing mud And in that corner, a love. Nocturno de tango Sad, compadre, tearful, Little music of the poor Congojas of a bandoneon.
