Lyrics and translation Roberto Goyeneche - Che Bandoneon
El
duende
de
tu
son,
che
bandoneón,
Your
melodious
soul,
oh
bandoneon,
Se
apiada
del
dolor
de
los
demás,
Pities
the
pain
of
others,
Y
al
estrujar
tu
fueye
dormilón
And
as
you
squeeze
your
sleepy
bellows
Se
arrima
al
corazón
que
sufre
más.
You
draw
near
to
hearts
that
suffer
most.
Estercita
y
Mimí
como
Ninón,
Estercita
and
Mimí,
like
Ninón,
Dejando
sus
destinos
de
percal
Abandoning
their
cloth-like
fates
Vistieron
al
final
mortajas
de
rayón,
Were
ultimately
dressed
in
rayon
shrouds,
Al
eco
funeral
de
tu
canción.
To
the
funeral
echo
of
your
song.
Bandoneón,
Bandoneon,
Hoy
es
noche
de
fandango
Tonight
is
a
night
of
fandango
Y
puedo
confesarte
la
verdad,
And
I
must
confess
the
truth
to
you,
Copa
a
copa,
pena
a
pena,
tango
a
tango,
Drink
by
drink,
sorrow
by
sorrow,
tango
by
tango,
Embalado
en
la
locura
I'm
caught
in
a
frenzy
Del
alcohol
y
la
amargura.
Of
alcohol
and
bitterness.
Bandoneón,
Bandoneon,
Para
qué
nombrarla
tanto,
Why
mention
her
so
much,
No
ves
que
está
de
olvido
el
corazón
Don't
you
see
my
heart
is
filled
with
oblivion?
Y
ella
vuelve
noche
a
noche
como
un
canto
Yet
she
returns
night
after
night
like
a
song
En
las
gotas
de
tu
llanto,
In
the
drops
of
your
weeping,
¡che
bandoneón!
Oh,
bandoneon!
Tu
canto
es
el
amor
que
no
se
dio
Your
song
is
the
love
that
was
never
given
Y
el
cielo
que
soñamos
una
vez,
And
the
heaven
we
once
dreamed
of,
Y
el
fraternal
amigo
que
se
hundió
And
the
fraternal
friend
who
sank
Cinchando
en
la
tormenta
de
un
querer.
Wallowing
in
the
storm
of
love.
Y
esas
ganas
tremendas
de
llorar
And
that
tremendous
urge
to
weep
Que
a
veces
nos
inundan
sin
razón,
That
sometimes
overwhelms
us
for
no
reason,
Y
el
trago
de
licor
que
obliga
a
recordar
And
the
shot
of
liquor
that
forces
us
to
remember
Si
el
alma
está
en
"orsai",
che
bandoneón.
If
our
soul
is
offside,
oh
bandoneon.
