Lyrics
Apretao a tu gemir
que es dolor de mi ciudad.
¡Yo amparé mi desconsuelo!
¡Fuiste en mi vida canción,
y en mi charco, cielo!
Acosao por el vivir,
yo, al rezar en tu emoción
el dolor de mil traiciones,
busqué en la fe de tu abrazo el valor,
pa' no dejarme morir.

Melodia porteña,
secreto de amor...
Que la voz no se atreve
a contárselo a Dios...
Yo te he dado en pedazos
la fe de mi vida...
Y escondí en tu guarida
mi llanto de amor...
¡Melodía porteña,
canción que nació
de tu dolor...
y mi dolor...!

Grito inmenso de pasión
que la vida sofocó
sin perdón entre sus manos...
Compás que late en las sienes,
y es alma... ¡Tango!
Fondo oscuro del vivir
donde se echan a llorar,
despeñándose, los sueños...
¡Regazo del que en pedazos se dio,
sin esperanza de amor!
English translation
Apretao to your moaning
which is the pain of my city.
I protected my grief!
You were in my life song,
and in my puddle, heaven!
Haunted by living,
I, praying in your emotion
the pain of a thousand betrayals,
I searched in the faith of your embrace for courage,
so as not to let me die.

Buenos Aires melody,
secret of love...
That the voice does not dare
to tell it to God...
I have given you in pieces
the faith of my life...
And I hid in your lair
my cry of love...
Buenos Aires melody,
song that was born
from your pain...
and my pain...!

Immense cry of passion
that life suffocated
without forgiveness between its hands...
A rhythm that beats in the temples,
and is soul... Tango!
Dark background of living
where they cry,
falling down, the dreams...
A remnant of the one who gave himself in pieces..,
without hope of love!
