Lyrics
El Tango de La Muerte
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
No tengo amigos,
no tengo amores,
no tengo patria,
ni religión.
solo amarguras tengo en el alma
y juna malaya mi corazón.
Mas no por eso yo me lamento
pues siempre tengo en la ocasión,
para mis quejas una milonga;
para mis penas una canción.
Que me importa de la vida,
si nadie me va a llorar.
Quien me lloraba se ha muerto
y esa muerte me ha matao
Desde entonces desafío
al jilguero y al zorzal,
quien mejor cantando ahoga
las tristezas de su mal.
Milonga mía no me abandones,
Tenerte siempre quiero, a mi lao.
Que no me falte cuando yo muera
una milonga para cantar.
