Lyrics

Español

Noches de Buenos Aires, en mi canción pone tu embrujo luminoso el sello ardiente de la emoción. Con tu perfume misterioso siente una extraña palpitación, noches de Buenos Aires, el corazón... Siempre en ti fue el placer compañero del dolor, la dicha se hermanó a la pena. Bajo el resplandecer de tus luces de color, el aire embriaga y envenena. La ilusión juvenil se encadena a la amarga vejez de Don Juan, y el que llora por pan y el que llora por amor, acollarados, siempre van. Noche de Buenos Aires, cuánto dolor en tu reír de cortesana que en cada beso pone un rencor. Va la nocturna caravana envuelta en sombras y resplandor, noches de Buenos Aires, buscando amor... Noches de Buenos Aires, en mi canción.

English · machine translation

Nights of Buenos Aires, in my song puts your luminous spell the ardent seal of emotion. With your mysterious perfume feel a strange palpitation, nights of Buenos Aires, the heart... Always in you was the pleasure companion of pain, happiness was twinned with sorrow. Under the radiance of your colored lights the air intoxicates and poisons. The youthful illusion is chained to the bitter old age of Don Juan, and he who cries for bread and he who cries for love, always go together. Night of Buenos Aires, how much pain in your courtesan laugh that in each kiss puts a grudge. The night caravan goes wrapped in shadows and brightness, nights of Buenos Aires, looking for love... Nights of Buenos Aires, in my song.
