Tango Del Vampiro
Daniel Melingo
Vampire Tango
I hear a bandoneon that assures me
That it's already night and it's dark night.
Today its groan sounds like a siren
Announcing that there's a full moon.
This is the tango that with a hoarse voice
I sing to Lucy as she leaves the jonca.
Lucy, my Lucy, there are no necklaces
To hide your jugulars.
For centuries I haven't felt hunger
And today I just want to drink your blood.
For centuries I haven't felt hunger
And today I just want to drink your blood.
Count, my count, my forbidden love
Since the day you drank it
All my blood belongs to you.
If you have wounded me, my flower of anemia
It's not tonight that presses me
But the flame you have ignited.
If you want something from me, just for that,
Open the mouth with which you hurt me,
With which you hurt me and give me a kiss today...
The same bandoneon as if speaking
Is telling me it's a clear night
It's no longer a groan, nor is it the scythe,
Nor is it that story from Transylvania.
This is the tango with a broken voice
That I now sing to my beloved,
But damn it, but damn it!
Who brought the garlic?! Who brought the garlic?!
Just now when without necklaces
Lucy shows me her jugulars.
Just now when without necklaces
Lucy shows me her jugulars.
