Текст и перевод песни Ariel Ardit - Rosa de Tango

Rosa de Tango

Tu corazón era un tango
Y un bandoneón tus caderas.
Lloraba un tango en tu alma,
Dormido en las sombras de tus ojeras
Dolor de Boedo y Chiclana
Sobre tus ojos de cielo.
Dolor gritando en la vincha
Carmín de tu pelo y en tu canción.

Rosa de tango,
Tu taconear en la vereda.
Rosa de tango,
Como el piropo que te enreda.
Todos tus caminos eran tangos,
Canto retorcido en un compás.
Y aquella noche,
Como en la historia de Esthercita,
Veinte abriles y una cita
Te alejaron para siempre de mi arrabal.

Con funerales de tangos
Lloró mi barrio tu olvido.
Quedó tu sueño distante
Y un interrogante:
¿Por qué te has ido?

Tu corazón era un tango
Como farol de cortada.
¿Dónde andarán, mariposa,
Tu boca pintada y tu canción?

Rose of Tango

Your heart was a tango
Your hips were a bandoneon.
A tango wept in your soul,
Asleep in the shadows of your dark circles
Pain of Boedo and Chiclana
Upon your heavenly eyes.
Pain screaming in the headband
Carmine of your hair and in your song.

Rose of tango,
Your heels tapping on the sidewalk.
Rose of tango,
Like the compliment that entangles you.
All your paths were tangos,
A twisty song in a beat.
And that night,
As in Esthercita's story,
Twenty years and an appointment
Took you away from my neighborhood forever.

My neighborhood cried over your forgotten tangos
As if at a funeral.
Your distant dream remained
And a question mark:
Why did you leave?

Your heart was a tango
Like a street lamp.
Where are they now, butterfly,
Your painted mouth and your song?
