Old school milongueros say it’s impossible to fully interpret a tango song without knowing a little bit about the lyrics. So, we’ve decided to crank up our translation machine and go one step at a time, one song at a time. Make sure to check this page regularly as we publish new translations every month.
Enjoy the translations and the stronger connection!
Our latest translation is Si soy así by Francisco Lomuto and Antonio Botta.
