El Choclo

(original)
Con este tango que es burlón y compadrito
Se ató dos alas la ambición de mi suburbio
Con este tango nació el tango, y como un grito
Salió del sórdido barrial buscando el cielo
Conjuro extraño de un amor hecho cadencia
Que abrió caminos sin más ley que la esperanza
Mezcla de rabia, de dolor, de fe, de ausencia
Llorando en la inocencia de un ritmo juguetón
Por tu milagro de notas agoreras
Nacieron, sin pensarlo, las paisas y las grelas
Luna de charcos, canyengue en las caderas
Y un ansia fiera en la manera de querer
Al evocarte, tango querido
Siento que tiemblan las baldosas de un bailongo
Y oigo el rezongo de mi pasado
Hoy, que no tengo más a mi madre
Siento que llega en punta 'e pie para besarme
Cuando tu canto nace al son de un bandoneón
Carancanfunfa se hizo al mar con tu bandera
Y en un pernó mezcló a París con Puente Alsina
Triste compadre del gavión y de la mina
Y hasta comadre del bacán y la pebeta
Por vos shusheta, cana, reo y mishiadura
Se hicieron voces al nacer con tu destino
¡Misa de faldas, querosén, tajo y cuchillo
Que ardió en los conventillos y ardió en mi corazón
(translation)
With this tango that is mocking and compadrito
The ambition of my suburb tied two wings
With this tango tango was born, and like a scream
Came out of the seedy slum looking for heaven
Strange spell of a love made cadence
That opened paths without more law than hope
Mix of rage, pain, faith, absence
Crying in the innocence of a playful rhythm
For your miracle of ominous notes
Without thinking, the paisas and the grelas were born
Moon of puddles, canyengue on the hips
And a fierce craving in the way of wanting
When evoking you, dear tango
I feel that the tiles of a bailongo tremble
And I hear the grumbling of my past
Today, I no longer have my mother
I feel that she arrives on tiptoe to kiss me
When your song is born to the sound of a bandoneon
Carancanfunfa took to the sea with your flag
And in a bolt she mixed Paris with Puente Alsina
Sad compadre of the gabion and the mine
And even comadre del bacán and la pebeta
For you shusheta, cana, inmate and mishiadura
Voices were made at birth with your destiny
Mass of skirts, kerosene, chop and knife
That burned in the conventillos and burned in my heart
