Lyrics

Gime, bandoneón, grave y rezongón en la nocturna verbena. En mi corazón tu gangoso son hace más honda mi pena. Con tu viruta sentimental vas enredando mi viejo mal, un viejo mal que me ha dejado enamorado, arrinconado, y olvidado para siempre. Sin una sola caricia que mi tristeza mitigue su risa mala me persigue y me persigue, mientras sigue tu responso, ¡bandoneón! A quién le puede importar ¡ bandoneón! que he sido bueno. A quién le puede importar el novelón del mal ajeno. Si a ella que fue mi querer no le importó mi abatimiento. A quién le puede importar ¡ bandoneón! mi sufrimiento. Suena menos gris tango, para mí. Sé que jamás la encontraré. Te saldré a bailar para disfrazar el drama que llevo adentro. En otros brazos me engañaré, en otras bocas me aturdiré aunque sus ojos y su risa me persigan y me sigan y me digan que la quiero. Iré a borrar el fantasma de aquel amor siempre atento, así termina este lamento y el tormento de este cruento sufrimiento... ¡Bandoneón !

Gime, bandoneon, grave and rezongón in the nightly verbena. In my heart your gangly sound deepens my sorrow. With your sentimental chip you are tangling my old evil, an old evil that has left me in love, cornered, and forgotten forever. Without a single caress to mitigate my sadness his evil laughter haunts me and haunts me, while it follows your response, bandoneon! Who can care bandoneon! that I've been good. Who can care the soap opera of someone else's evil. If she who was my love did not care about my despondency. Who could care my suffering. It sounds less gray tango, for me. I know I'll never find it. I'll go out dancing for you to disguise the drama I carry inside. In other arms I'll deceive myself, in other mouths I'll be dazed though your eyes and your laughter chase me and follow me and tell me that I love her. I will go to erase the ghost of that ever-attentive love, thus ends this lament and the torment of this bloody suffering... Bandoneon !
