Alas de Tango

Tango Wings

Alas de Tango

Her fragile little figure illuminated the ballroomSu frágil figurita iluminaba el salón
Presence of hallucinated and seductive tango wingsPresencia de alas de tango alucinado y seductor
If Scola had seen her, he would have taken her with himSi scola la hubiera visto se la llevaba con él
So pale, in her black dress, she flew with pleasureTan pálida, en su vestido negro, volaba de placer

Time was not time in that placeEl tiempo no era tiempo en aquel lugar
The only joy was to see the couples danceUn solo gozo era ver las parejas bailar
Every turn in my head was a storyCada giro en mi cabeza fué una historia
Buenos Aires with its magic got into my memoryBuenos aires con su magia se metió en mi memoria

Night aromas entered through the windowAromas de la noche entraban por el ventanal
The two by four reigned in the restless looksReinaba el dos por cuatro en las inquietas miradas
The dancer caressed her beautiful backAcariciaba el bailarín su linda espalda
Made her feet spin to the rhythm of the soulHacía girar sus pies al compás del alma

Tango wings filled the darkness with moonlightAlas de tango llenaban de luna la penumbra
And in a champagne toast, the room was left in the darkY en un brindis de champagne la sala fué quedando a oscuras
The day when tango is danced in the streets of loveEl día que se baile tango en las calles del amor
Face to face, eyes closed, heart to heartCara a cara, ojos cerrados, corazón a corazón

Every turn in my head was a storyCada giro en mi cabeza fué una historia
Buenos Aires with its magic got into my memory.Buenos aires con su magia se metió en mi memoria.
