COPA DE AJENJO lyrics

LYRICS: Carlos Pesce
MUSIC: Juan Canaro

I

Suena tango compañero,
suena que quiero cantar,
porque esta noche la espero
y se que no ha de llegar,
y en esta copa de ajenjo
en vano pretendo mis penas ahogar;
suena tango compañero,
suena que quiero llorar.

II

Pensar que la quise tanto
y embrujao por sus encantos
hoy perdi la dignidad;
soy un borracho perdido
que en la copa del olvido
busca su felicidad;
son caprichos del destino
que lo quiso una mujer,
si esta marcado mi sino
quien sabe si ha de volver...
pero yo la esperare!...
Suena tango compañero
como una recordación,
si lloro porque la quiero,
son cosas del corazón!
Sirva otra copa de ajenjo
que a nadie le importa si quiero tomar,
porque esta noche la espero
y se que no ha de llegar...

Quote of the Day

You must certainly follow the rules of tango. Follow the technique you learn and follow the man's lead, but try to move like yourself. The form of movement should be absolutely personal with its own dynamics and its own expression. It is also important for a woman learning tango to learn to perceive the man - to be able to follow him in every way: in each pause, in each breath. Let yourself be led, and let yourself be filled with the music to be able to interpret it. -Guillermina Quiroga [on women]
