Buenos Aires (de tus amores)
León Gieco
Buenos Aires (of your loves)
At the cross of your eyes, at dawn,
the evil gets lost
A new day is so much
that does good and saves
I saw you dancing alone
between excess and discretion,
looking for history, gathering years
Upon me your flower of humidity opens
In many of your places
love is not enough
Even a good heart
can lose its calm
Give me what you can,
or it will be lost forever
Everything that fell burned twice
Upon me your flower of humidity opens
Buenos Aires, city of fate,
dweller of a destiny
Before the light of your loves, of your divine mystery,
today I don't know, tomorrow maybe, I'll fall surrendered
The time and the water that this river has today
couldn't extinguish so much fallen fire yet
Vices of society
that is waiting for a miracle
Some are leaving, others stuck in the mud
Upon me your flower of humidity opens
Souls are gathering,
symbol of a dream that is born
Many years of struggle,
through your corners and streets
Fleeting prisoner who is with you and with another
Red mouth of tango that provokes me
Upon me your flower of humidity opens
Buenos Aires, city of fate,
dweller of a destiny
Before the light of your loves, of your divine mystery,
today I don't know, tomorrow maybe, I'll fall surrendered
